NEGATIVE IMPACT
ASLAN Pharmaceuticals has been warned by Nasdaq for not meeting the minimum bid price, risking delisting if not addressed within 180 days. The company may consider a reverse stock split to comply.
Receiving a deficiency notice is a negative signal to the market, indicating that the company's stock is not performing well. This news can lead to a decrease in investor confidence and potentially result in a further decline in the stock price in the short term. The possibility of a reverse stock split may not be well-received by investors as it often is perceived as a move to artificially maintain compliance rather than a reflection of company growth or value.
