HONG KONG, Jan. 16, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Cellyan Biotechnology Co., Ltd (Nasdaq: HKPD) (the “Company”), a leading provider of over the counter (“OTC”) pharmaceutical cross-border e-commerce supply chain services in Hong Kong, today announced that it received a notification letter (the “Notification Letter”) dated January 12, 2026 from Nasdaq’s Listing Qualifications Department indicating that the closing bid price of the Company’s class A ordinary shares of par value of US$0.001 each was below the minimum requirement of US$1.00 per share for 30 consecutive business days from November 26, 2025 through January 9, 2026, and the Company was therefore currently not in compliance with the minimum bid price requirement set forth under Nasdaq listing rule 5550(a)(2).
The notification letter has no immediate effect on the listing of the Company’s class A ordinary shares, which will continue to trade uninterrupted on Nasdaq under the ticker “HKPD”.
Pursuant to listing rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company has a compliance period of 180 calendar days, or until July 13, 2026, to regain compliance with the minimum bid price rule. If, at any time during the 180-day period the closing bid price per share of the Company’s class A ordinary shares is US$1.00 or above for a minimum of ten consecutive business days, Nasdaq will provide written confirmation of compliance and this matter will be closed.
In the event the Company does not regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement by July 13, 2026, the Company may be eligible for an additional 180 calendar day grace period to regain compliance. To qualify, the Company will be required to meet the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other initial listing standards for the Nasdaq Capital Market, with the exception of the bid price requirement, and will need to provide written notice of its intention to cure the deficiency during the second compliance period, including by effecting a reverse share split, if necessary. If the Company chooses to implement a reverse share split, it must complete the split no later than 10 business days prior to July 13, 2026 or the expiration of the second compliance period if granted.
This press release is issued pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(b), which requires prompt disclosure of receipt of a deficiency notification. The Company is currently looking into various options available with respect to regaining such compliance. The notification letter has no effect at this time on the listing of the Company’s class A ordinary shares, which will continue to trade uninterrupted on Nasdaq under the ticker “HKPD.”
