BELVIDERE, NJ - Edible Garden AG Inc (NASDAQ:EDBL), a crop production company, is currently in the process of appealing a delisting notice from Nasdaq.

The company received a communication from Nasdaq's Listing Qualifications Department on October 21, 2024, indicating that its common stock had not met the minimum bid price requirement of $1 per share for 30 consecutive business days, as per Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2).

In response to the notice, Edible Garden AG submitted a request for a hearing before a Nasdaq Hearings Panel on Monday to present its plan to regain compliance. The company's common stock and warrants will continue to trade on the Nasdaq under the symbols "EDBL" and "EDBLW" pending the outcome of the appeal process. The Panel's decision will be crucial for the company's continued listing on the exchange.

There is no certainty that the Panel will grant Edible Garden additional time to comply with the listing standards, nor can it be assured that the company will be able to meet the necessary criteria for continued listing on Nasdaq in the future.

This news is based on a press release statement and the company's recent SEC filing.

In other recent news, Edible Garden AG Incorporated reported a robust Q2 in 2024. Despite a net loss of $1.21 per share, the company's gross profit rose by 157%, driven by a 61% increase in cut herbs and a 30% increase in vitamins and supplements. The company also received grants from the USDA Organic Certification Program, supporting their organic certification efforts and new product innovation.

Edible Garden AG has also announced a new partnership with Green’s Natural Foods and The Extra Supermarket in New York and New Jersey, expanding its distribution in the Northeastern United States. In addition, the company's shareholders approved an amendment to its equity incentive plan, increasing the shares reserved for issuance and extending the plan's term.

However, the company is facing a potential delisting from Nasdaq due to a failure to maintain the minimum required bid price. Despite this, Edible Garden AG plans to appeal this decision.

These are the recent developments in Edible Garden AG's business operations.

InvestingPro Insights

Edible Garden AG Inc's current financial situation aligns with its struggle to maintain Nasdaq listing requirements. According to InvestingPro data, the company's market capitalization stands at a mere $1.09 million USD, reflecting its precarious position. The stock's performance has been particularly concerning, with InvestingPro Tips highlighting that it has "taken a big hit over the last week" and is "trading near 52-week low."

The company's financial health appears to be strained, as indicated by several InvestingPro Tips. Edible Garden "operates with a significant debt burden" and "may have trouble making interest payments on debt." This is further compounded by the fact that it is "quickly burning through cash" and its "short term obligations exceed liquid assets."

Despite these challenges, it's worth noting that the stock is "trading at a low revenue valuation multiple," which could potentially attract value-oriented investors if the company manages to address its financial and listing issues.
