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

On June 16, 2023, Better Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company”) received deficiency letters from the Listing Qualifications Department (the “Staff”) of the Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that it is not in compliance with the minimum bid price requirement and the market value of listed securities requirement for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market. Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) requires companies listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market to maintain a minimum bid price of at least $1 per share (the “Minimum Bid Price Requirement”). Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(2) requires companies listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market to maintain a minimum market value of listed securities of at least $35 million (the “MVLS Requirement”). The letters noted that, as of their date, the bid price of the Company's common stock, par value $0.0001 per share ("Common Stock") was below $1 per share and the Company's market value of listed securities was below $35 million, in each case for 30 consecutive business days.

 

The notifications received have no immediate effect on the Company’s continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market, subject to the Company’s compliance with the other continued listing requirements.

 

In accordance with Nasdaq rules, the Company has been provided 180 calendar days, or until December 13, 2023, to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement and the MVLS Requirement.

 

To regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement, the closing bid price of the Common Stock must meet or exceed $1.00 per share for a minimum of ten consecutive business days during the 180 day compliance period. If the Company is not in compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement by December 13, 2023, the Company may qualify for a second 180 calendar day compliance period.

 

To regain compliance with the MVLS Requirement, the Company's market value of listed securities must close at $35 million or more for a minimum of ten consecutive business days during the 180 day compliance period.

 

If the Company does not qualify for, or fails to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement during the second 180 day compliance period, or if the Company is not in compliance with the MVLS Requirement by December 13, 2023, then the Staff will provide written notice to the Company that its securities are subject to delisting, at which point the Company would have an option to appeal the delisting determination to a Nasdaq hearings panel.

 

The Company intends to actively monitor the closing bid price of its Commons Stock and its market value of listed securities and may, if appropriate, consider implementing available options to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement and the MVLS Requirement under the Nasdaq Listing Rules.
