GRAND CAYMAN, Cayman Islands, July 31, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SRIVARU Holding Limited (Nasdaq: SVMH, SVMHW) (“SRIVARU” or the “Company”), a manufacturer of premium electric motorcycles today announced that on July 30, 2024, the Company received an additional staff determination letter from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company of the determination of the Nasdaq staff (the “Staff”) that because the Company had not regained compliance with the Nasdaq requirements to maintain (i) a minimum Market Value of Publicly Held Shares of $15,000,000, and (ii) a minimum Market Value of Listed Securities of $50,000,000 as set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rules 5450(b)(2)(A) and 5450(b)(2)(C), respectively, these matters serve as additional bases for delisting the Company’s securities from the Nasdaq Global Market.

On July 31, 2024, the Company submitted a request to Nasdaq for a hearing with a Hearing Panel (the “Panel”) to appeal the Staff’s determinations regarding its inability to maintain (i) a minimum Bid Price of $1.00, (ii) a minimum Market Value of Publicly Held Shares of $15,000,000, and (iii) a minimum Market Value of Listed Securities of $50,000,000 (collectively, the “Rules”), which will stay the delisting and the Company’s securities will continue to trade on Nasdaq pending the Panel’s decision.

At the hearing, SRIVARU is prepared to present a comprehensive plan to regain compliance with Nasdaq's listing requirements and is committed to working diligently within the plan to meet the necessary criteria. However, there is no assurance that the Company will secure an extension period from the Panel to achieve compliance, or, if granted, that it will meet the necessary criteria within the extension period.
