Zentek Ltd. (Nasdaq: ZTEK) has received notification from Nasdaq that it is not compliant with the minimum bid price requirement, as its shares have traded below US$1.00 for 31 consecutive business days. The company has until February 23, 2026 to regain compliance by maintaining a closing bid price of at least US$1.00 for 10 consecutive business days.

If Zentek fails to meet this deadline, it may be eligible for an additional 180-day grace period if it meets other listing requirements and provides written notice to Nasdaq. The notification is not an immediate delisting notice, and the company's shares continue to trade on the Nasdaq Capital Market while management explores options to regain compliance.

La società ha tempo fino al 23 febbraio 2026 per tornare conforme mantenendo un prezzo di chiusura di almeno US$1,00 per 10 giorni di borsa consecutivi.

Se Zentek non riuscisse a rispettare tale termine, potrebbe ottenere un periodo di grazia aggiuntivo di 180 giorni se soddisfa gli altri requisiti di quotazione e fornisce a Nasdaq una comunicazione scritta. La notifica non costituisce un avviso di esclusione immediata, e le azioni della società continuano a essere negoziate sul Nasdaq Capital Market mentre la direzione valuta le opzioni per recuperare la conformità.

Insights

Zentek faces Nasdaq delisting risk after share price fell below $1; has until February 2026 to regain compliance.

Zentek has received a Nasdaq notification regarding minimum bid price deficiency, a significant regulatory development that puts the company at risk of eventual delisting if not addressed. The company's shares have traded below the required $1.00 threshold for 31 consecutive business days, triggering this compliance issue.

The company now enters a standard 180-day compliance period ending February 23, 2026, during which it must achieve a closing bid price above $1.00 for at least ten consecutive business days. If unsuccessful, Zentek may qualify for a second 180-day grace period if it meets other Nasdaq Capital Market listing requirements and demonstrates intent to resolve the deficiency - potentially through a reverse stock split.

This notification represents a serious challenge for Zentek, as sustained low share prices often reflect deeper market concerns about a company's financial health or growth prospects. While management has indicated they will "consider all available options" to regain compliance, the most common remedies include reverse stock splits (which mathematically increase share price but don't change fundamental valuation) or improving business performance to attract investor interest.

The notification doesn't immediately affect Zentek's listing status, but failure to address this deficiency could eventually lead to delisting, which would significantly impact liquidity, institutional investment eligibility, and overall market perception. Companies receiving such notifications frequently experience additional selling pressure as some investors avoid stocks with delisting risks.

Guelph, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - August 27, 2025) - Zentek Ltd. (Nasdaq: ZTEK) (TSXV: ZEN) ("Zentek" or the "Company") announces that on August 26, 2025, it received a written notification (the "Notification Letter") from the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC ("Nasdaq") that the Company is not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2), as the minimum bid price of the Company's common shares ("Shares") has been below US $1.00 per share for 31 consecutive business days.

The Notification Letter is only a notification of deficiency and not a notice of delisting. As such, the Notification Letter has no immediate effect on the listing or trading of the Company's Shares on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol "ZTEK."

Nasdaq Listing Rules

Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) requires securities listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market to maintain a minimum bid price of US$1.00 per share, and Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A) provides that a failure to meet the minimum bid price requirement exists if the deficiency continues for a period of 30 consecutive business days. Based on the closing bid price of the Company's Shares for the 30 consecutive business days from July 14, 2025, to August 25, 2025, the Company has not met the minimum bid price requirement.

In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), Zentek has a period of 180 calendar days, or until February 23, 2026, in which to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement. To regain compliance, the closing bid price of the Company's Shares must meet or exceed US $1.00 for at least ten consecutive business days during this 180-calendar day period. In the event Zentek does not regain compliance by February 23, 2026, the Company may be eligible for an additional 180 calendar day grace period if it meets the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares (US $1 million) and all other initial listing standards for The Nasdaq Capital Market, with the exception of the bid price and provides written notice to Nasdaq of its intention to cure the deficiency during the second compliance period, by effecting a reverse stock split, if necessary. If it appears to Nasdaq that Zentek will not be able to cure the deficiency, or if Zentek is not otherwise eligible for additional time to regain compliance, Zentek's Shares will be subject to delisting by Nasdaq. Zentek may still appeal Nasdaq's determination to delist its Shares, and during any appeal process, Zentek's Shares would continue to trade on the Nasdaq Capital Market.

Zentek's management intends to actively monitor the bid price for its Shares and will consider all available options to regain compliance with the Nasdaq minimum bid price requirement.

The Company's business operations are not affected by the receipt of the Notification Letter.
