Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
On November 22, 2023, the Company was notified by The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) that as a result of the Company’s previously disclosed noncompliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1), Nasdaq has determined to delist the Company’s common stock from the Nasdaq Capital Market and, accordingly, will suspend trading in the Company’s common stock effective at the open of business, on November 27, 2023. Nasdaq further indicated that it will file a Form 25 Notification of Delisting with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).
The Company has applied to have its common stock quoted on the OTC Markets’ OTCQB® market tier, an electronic quotation service operated by OTC Markets Group Inc. for eligible securities traded over-the-counter. Pending approval, the Company expects that trading of the Company’s common stock will commence on the OTC Pink Sheets at the open of business on November 27, 2023 under its current trading symbol ZIVO.
The transition to the quotation of the Company’s common stock on the OTC Markets will have no effect on the Company’s business or operations. The Company will continue to file periodic and other required reports with the SEC under applicable federal securities laws that will be available on the SEC’s website, www.SEC.gov.
