Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

 

As reported by Celularity Inc., or Celularity, in its Form 12b-25 Notification of Late Filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 31, 2025, Celularity was unable to file its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, or the 2024 Form 10-K, within the prescribed time period. The extension provided under Rule 12b-25 expired on April 15, 2025.

 

On April 16, 2025, Nasdaq provided formal notice to Celularity that as a result of Celularity’s failure to timely file its 2024 Form 10-K, it no longer complied with the continued listing requirements under the timely filing criteria outlined in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1). Nasdaq’s notice has no immediate effect on the listing of Celularity’s common stock and warrants, which continue to trade on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbols “CELU” and “CELUW”, respectively.

 

Celularity is required to submit to Nasdaq a plan to regain compliance within 60 calendar days, or by June 16, 2025, and if accepted, Celularity has a period of 180 calendar days from the 2024 Form 10-K due date, or until October 13, 2025, to implement the plan to regain compliance.

 

Celularity is actively working to file the 2024 Form 10-K as soon as possible and we currently expect to file the 2024 Form 10-K imminently. If necessary, Celularity intends to submit a plan to Nasdaq within the 60-day period and will evaluate available options to regain compliance within the compliance period. However, there can be no assurance that Celularity will regain compliance within the compliance period or maintain compliance with the other Nasdaq listing requirements. If it appears to Nasdaq that Celularity will not be able to cure the deficiency, or if Celularity is otherwise not eligible, Nasdaq will provide notification that Celularity’s common stock will be subject to delisting.
