Waldencast plc Announces Receipt of Nasdaq Listing Notice

NEW YORK, Nov. 06, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Waldencast plc, (NASDAQ: WALD) (“Waldencast” or the “Company”), a global multi-brand beauty and wellness platform, today announced that on October 31, 2023, the Company received written notice from the Listing Qualifications Staff (the “Staff”) of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) indicating that the Company was subject to delisting from Nasdaq based upon the Company’s non-compliance with the filing requirement set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1), which requires the timely filing of periodic reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The Company plans to timely request a hearing before the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “Panel”) pursuant to the procedures set forth in the Nasdaq Listing Rules. The Listing Rules also provide that such request will stay any suspension or delisting action for 22 days from the date of the Nasdaq notification. Further, the Listing Rules provide that, in its hearing request, the Company may request that the stay remain in effect through the hearing and the expiration of any additional extension period granted by the Panel following the hearing. Accordingly, the Company intends to make such an extended stay request. If granted, the Company’s securities will continue to be listed and trade on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbols “WALD” and “WALDW,” respectively, for the stay period granted by the Panel.

The Company is diligently working to complete and file the Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2022 (the “2022 Annual Report”), with the SEC as soon as practicable. There can be no assurance, however, that the Company’s requests for a further stay of any suspension action by Nasdaq and the continued listing of its securities will be granted by the Panel, or that the Company will be able to evidence compliance with all applicable requirements for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market should the Panel grant the Company an extension to do so.
