Vicarious Surgical Inc. (“Vicarious Surgical” or the “Company”) (NYSE: RBOT, RBOT WS), a next-generation robotics technology company seeking to improve patient outcomes as well as both the cost and efficiency of surgical procedures, today announced that on September 20, 2023, it received a notice (the “Notice”) from the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) that it is not in compliance with Section 802.01C of the NYSE Listed Company Manual because the average closing price of the Company’s Class A common stock was less than $1.00 per share over a consecutive 30 trading-day period. The Notice does not result in the immediate delisting of the Company’s Class A common stock from the NYSE.
The Company intends to respond to the NYSE within ten business days of receipt of the Notice affirming its intent to cure the stock price deficiency and to return to compliance with the NYSE continued listing standard. Pursuant to the NYSE’s rules, the Company has a six-month period following receipt of the Notice to regain compliance with the NYSE’s minimum share price requirement.
The Company can regain compliance with the minimum share price requirement at any time during the cure period if, on the last trading day of any calendar month during the cure period, or on the last day of the cure period, the Company’s Class A common stock has (i) a closing share price of at least $1.00, and (ii) an average closing share price of at least $1.00 over the 30 trading-day period ending on the last trading day of that month or on the last day of the cure period, as applicable. The Company intends to consider available alternatives, including, but not limited to, a reverse stock split, subject to Board and stockholder approval at the Company’s next annual meeting, to regain compliance.
The Company’s Class A common stock will continue to be listed and traded on the NYSE during this period, subject to its compliance with other NYSE continued listing standards. The receipt of the Notice does not affect the Company’s business, operations or reporting requirements with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
