Celularity Inc. Announces Resolution of Nasdaq Listing Compliance Matter
December 10 2024 - 7:00AM
Celularity Inc. (Nasdaq: CELU) (“Celularity” or the “Company”), a
regenerative and cellular medicine company, today announced that it
has received a letter from the Listing Qualifications department of
the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”), confirming that Celularity
has regained compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) (the
“Rule”). Following the filing of its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q
for the period ended September 30, 2024, Nasdaq has determined that
the matter is now closed.
“We are pleased to have fully addressed Nasdaq’s requirements
and resolved this matter, ensuring that our stock remains listed
and continues to trade on the Nasdaq Capital Market,” said Robert
J. Hariri, M.D., Ph.D., Founder, Chairman, and CEO of Celularity.
“This milestone reflects our commitment to regulatory compliance
and transparency. The significant improvements we’ve made to our
financial reporting infrastructure will serve as a strong
foundation for our future growth and success.”
The filing delays were primarily the result of challenges
associated with Celularity’s efforts to address a backlog of prior
filings, including the Forms 10-Q for the first and second quarters
of 2024, which were filed recently. Celularity has implemented
meaningful process improvements, including engaging EisnerAmper LLP
as its independent audit firm and enhancing its internal
controls.
“We are confident in the steps we’ve taken to strengthen our
finance function and ensure timely and accurate reporting going
forward,” Dr. Hariri continued. “This resolution marks a critical
turning point for Celularity as we continue advancing our mission
to harness the potential of the placenta to develop transformative
therapies.”
