Xcel Brands gets Nasdaq minimum bid price notice; has until March 29, 2027 to regain $1.00 compliance
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- Nasdaq notified Xcel Brands on September 29, 2026 that its common stock closed below $1.00 for 30 consecutive business days.
- Company has 180 calendar days, until March 29, 2027, to regain compliance by holding a closing bid of at least $1.00 for 10 consecutive business days.
- If it fails, Xcel may be eligible for a second compliance period under Rule 5810(c)(3)(A)(ii), requiring written notice and possibly a reverse stock split.
- Company says it will monitor its closing bid price and the market value of its publicly held shares and consider available options to cure the deficiency.
- No assurance of regaining compliance; failure would bring a Nasdaq delisting notice appealable to a hearings panel.
