NEW YORK and TOKYO – HeartCore Enterprises, Inc. (NASDAQ:HTCR), a Tokyo-based enterprise software and consulting services firm, has confirmed its compliance with the Nasdaq's minimum bid price requirement, ensuring its continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market. The company had previously been at risk of delisting due to its stock price falling below the $1.00 threshold required by Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2).
On Monday (NASDAQ:MNDY), HeartCore received a notification from the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC, indicating that the company had successfully met the minimum bid price requirement. This development cancels the previously scheduled December 17 hearing where HeartCore was to appeal the non-compliance notice it received on October 22.
HeartCore Enterprises specializes in providing Software (ETR:SOWGn) as a Service (SaaS) solutions and data analytics services globally. Their offerings include a customer experience management platform, which encompasses marketing, sales, service, and content management systems. Additionally, HeartCore assists Japanese companies in going public in the U.S. through their GO IPO consulting services.
The announcement is based on a press release statement and does not include any forward-looking statements from HeartCore Enterprises. The company's compliance with the Nasdaq's listing standards is a factual development, reflecting its current status in the financial market.
In other recent news, HeartCore Enterprises has announced a significant move towards a Software as a Service (SaaS) model for its content management system platform, which is expected to drive a 115% sales growth. This strategic shift is accompanied by the company's forecast of Q3 2024 revenues between $17 million and $19 million, indicating a noteworthy year-over-year increase. However, HeartCore is concurrently facing a potential delisting from Nasdaq due to non-compliance with the minimum bid price requirement.
In addition to its SaaS transition, HeartCore has entered into collaborations with Tosho Computer Systems Co., Ltd. and Fourmix Co., Ltd. These partnerships aim to boost sales of its investor relations support tool, irVision, and integrate its Content Management System platform into Fourmix's operations, respectively.
Moreover, HeartCore has reported substantial revenue from SBC Medical (TASE:PMCN) Group Holdings Inc.'s initial public offering. At the company's annual virtual meeting of stockholders, all six nominees for the Board of Directors were elected to serve a one-year term and a reverse stock split of HeartCore's common stock was approved. These are among the recent developments at HeartCore Enterprises.
