MindMed Does Not View Nasdaq Delisting as “a Risk of Any Sort”
To kick-off This Week in Psychedelic Stocks, we are starting with MindMed (NASDAQ: MNMD, NEO: MMED). In a Psychedelic Spotlight hosted AMA held with MindMed CEO Robert Barrow, the question of what MindMed is doing to avoid being delisted from the Nasdaq was raised. As background, a company must maintain a stock price of at least $1 to remain on the Nasdaq, and MindMed’s stock currently sits at $0.58.
Despite this, Mr. Barrow assured all of its investors that there was very little chance of this happening. In fact, he said that MindMed “certainly do not view delisting as a risk of any sort.”
MindMed currently has 177 days to get its stock price back up over $1. If it fails to accomplish this, it may be granted another 180 days.
