https://radioinsight.com/wp-content/images/2023/07/beasley-200x200.pngBeasley Media Group was issued a notice from the Nasdaq Global Market that its stock price had fallen out of compliance closing below the $1.00 per share minimum bid price requirement for 30 consecutive business days.
Beasley has been given 180 days through April 10, 2024 to regain compliance by closing at a minimum of $1 per share for ten consecutive business days. In a filing with the Securities & Exchanges Commission, Beasley stated, “The Company intends to actively monitor the closing bid price of its Common Stock and will consider all reasonable available options to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement, which may include transferring the listing to the Nasdaq Capital Market and/or seeking stockholder approval to effect a reverse stock split. There can be no assurance that the Company will regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement during the 180-day compliance period, secure a second 180-day period to regain compliance, maintain compliance with the other Nasdaq listing requirements or be successful in appealing any delisting determination.”
Beasley Media Group becomes the fourth radio station operator to fall out of compliance with either Nasdaq or the New York Stock Exchange this year joining Audacy (https://radioinsight.com/headlines/254278/audacy-implements-1-for-30-reverse-stock-split/), Salem Media Group (https://radioinsight.com/headlines/254061/salem-media-group-falls-out-of-nasdaq-compliance/), and Urban One (https://radioinsight.com/headlines/259393/nasdaq-begins-urban-one-stock-delisting-process/). Beasley stock opened today at 83 cents per share.

On October 13, 2023, Beasley Broadcast Group, Inc. (the ?Company?) received written notice (the ?Notice?) from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (?Nasdaq?) 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 5450(a)(1) (the ?Minimum Bid Price Requirement?). 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 5810(c)(3)(A) (unless the Nasdaq staff exercises its discretion to extend this ten-day period pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(H)) 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 with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement, which may include transferring the listing to the Nasdaq Capital Market and/or seeking stockholder approval to effect a reverse stock split. There can be no assurance that the Company will regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement during the 180-day compliance period, secure a second 180-day period to regain compliance, maintain compliance with the other Nasdaq listing requirements or be successful in appealing any delisting determination.
