As previously reported on April 24, 2020, Profire Energy, Inc. (the “Company”) received written notice from the Listing Qualifications Department (the “Staff”) of the Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that it was not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Minimum Bid Price Requirement”) because the closing bid price for the Company’s common stock closed below $1.00 per share for the previous 30 consecutive business days. In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company was provided an initial grace period to regain compliance. Given the extraordinary market conditions in the financial markets, Nasdaq determined to toll the compliance period for the bid price requirement through June 30, 2020. The compliance period resumed on July 1, 2020, and the Company had 180 calendar days, or until December 28, 2020 (the “Original Compliance Date”), to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement.
As reported on December 29, 2020, the Company received notice from the Staff of Nasdaq granting the Company’s request for an additional 180 calendar day period, or until June 28, 2021, to regain compliance. The Staff’s determination was based on the Company meeting the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other applicable requirements for initial listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market with the exception of the bid price requirement, and the Company’s written notice of its intention to cure the deficiency during the second compliance period by effecting a reverse stock split, if necessary.
On January 27, 2021, the Company received a letter from Nasdaq notifying the Company that for the previous 10 consecutive business days, from January 12, 2021 to January 26, 2021, the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock was $1.00 per share or greater. Accordingly, the notice confirmed that the Company has regained compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement and the matter is now closed.
