FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Form 8-K and other reports filed by Registrant from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission (collectively, the “Filings”) contain or may contain forward-looking statements and information that are based upon beliefs of, and information currently available to, Registrant’s management as well as estimates and assumptions made by Registrant’s management. When used in the Filings the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “future,” “intend,” “plan” or the negative of these terms and similar expressions as they relate to Registrant or Registrant’s management identify forward-looking statements. Such statements reflect the current view of Registrant with respect to future events and are subject to risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other factors relating to Registrant’s industry, Registrant’s operations and results of operations and any businesses that may be acquired by Registrant. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should the underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may differ significantly from those anticipated, believed, estimated, expected, intended or planned.
Although Registrant believes that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, Registrant cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. Except as required by applicable law, including the securities laws of the United States, Registrant does not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements to conform these statements to actual results.
Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard
On January 8, 2024, AgriForce Growing Systems, Ltd. (the “Company”) received a letter from Nasdaq that it no longer complies with Rule 5550(a)(2) of Nasdaq’s Listing Rules (the “Rules”) which require listed securities to maintain a minimum bid price of $1 per share. Based upon the closing bid price for the last 30 consecutive business days (November 21, 2023 to January 5, 2024), the Company no longer meets this requirement. However, the Rules also provide the Company a compliance period of 180 calendar days (until July 8, 2024) in which to regain compliance. Pursuant to Rule 5810(c)(3)(C) if at any time during this 180 day period the closing bid price of the Company’s security is at least $1 for a minimum of ten consecutive business days, Nasdaq will provide the Company written confirmation of compliance and this matter will be closed. In the event the Company does not regain compliance by July 8, 2024, the Company may be eligible for additional time to regain compliance, or may face delisting.
