Item 8.01 Other Events

 

As previously reported by HWH International Inc. (the “Company”), The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”), issued a delist letter based on the Company’s non-compliance with the market value of publicly held shares and market value of listed securities requirements of the Nasdaq Global Market. The Company’s compliance plan was approved by a Nasdaq hearing panel (the “Panel”) granting the Company an exception to regain compliance with these requirements until December 31, 2024. In addition, the Panel gave the Company until December 31, 2024, to demonstrate compliance with The Nasdaq Capital Market stockholders’ equity requirement of $2.5 million in order to transfer the Company’s securities to The Nasdaq Capital Market. To regain compliance with the stockholders’ equity requirement, the Company must achieve stockholders’ equity of at least $2.5 million and must demonstrate its ability to sustain compliance with that requirement.

 

As a result of the transactions described below, as of the date of this current report on Form 8-K, the Company believes it has stockholders’ equity in excess of $2.5 million. The Company intends to notify Nasdaq of its compliance status so that Nasdaq can make a determination as to whether the Company has regained compliance with all applicable requirements for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market.
