Beasley Media Facing Possible NASDAQ De-Listing


Beasley Broadcast Group, Inc. has received written notice from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC notifying the Company that, for the last 30 consecutive business days, the bid price for the Company’s Class A common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”) had closed below the $1.00 per share minimum bid price requirement for continued inclusion on the Nasdaq Global Market pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule. The Notice has no immediate effect on the listing of the Common Stock, which continues to trade on the Nasdaq Global Market under the symbol “BBGI”.

In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company has a period of 180 calendar days, or until April 10, 2024, to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. To regain compliance, the closing bid price of the Company’s Common Stock must be at least $1.00 per share for a minimum of ten consecutive business days as required under Nasdaq Listing Rule during the 180-day period prior to April 10, 2024.

If the Company does not regain compliance by April 10, 2024, the Company may be eligible for an additional 180-calendar day compliance period by transferring the listing of its Common Stock to the Nasdaq Capital Market and satisfying certain requirements. If the Company fails to regain compliance during the compliance period (including a second compliance period provided by a transfer to the Nasdaq Capital Market, if applicable), then Nasdaq will notify the Company of its determination to delist its Common Stock, at which point the Company may appeal Nasdaq’s delisting determination to a Nasdaq hearing panel.

The Company intends to actively monitor the closing bid price of its Common Stock and will consider all reasonable available options to regain compliance.
