Captivision faces potential Nasdaq delisting over compliance issues

NEW YORK - Captivision Inc. (NASDAQ: CAPT), a manufacturer and global provider of LED solutions, is confronting challenges with maintaining its listing on The Nasdaq Stock Market. The company, which InvestingPro data shows has a current market capitalization of $49.2 million and carries a "Weak" financial health score, disclosed on Monday that it has failed to meet Nasdaq’s Market Value of Listed Securities requirement and is also delinquent in filing its annual report, which could lead to delisting.

The company, known for its innovative media glass that can turn any glass façade into a transparent media screen, received a staff determination letter from Nasdaq on June 4, 2025. This notice followed an initial deficiency letter dated December 3, 2024, which indicated that Captivision’s market value had fallen below the $50 million threshold for 30 consecutive business days, violating Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(b)(2)(A). According to InvestingPro analysis, the company’s financial challenges extend beyond market value, with a concerning current ratio of 0.25 and significant debt burden. InvestingPro subscribers have access to 16 additional key insights about Captivision’s financial position.

Captivision was given until June 2, 2025, to regain compliance but failed to do so. Additionally, the company has not yet filed its Form 20-F for the period ending December 31, 2024, breaching Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1), which pertains to timely financial reporting.

In response to the Nasdaq notification, Captivision plans to request a hearing before the Nasdaq Hearings Panel to appeal the determination. This action will automatically stay any trading suspension or delisting for 15 calendar days following the hearing request. Captivision will seek an extension of this stay through the hearing date and any additional extension period the Panel may grant.

Despite the potential for an extended stay, Captivision acknowledges that there is no guarantee the Panel will grant such an extension or that the company will be able to demonstrate compliance within any granted extension period. The company’s stock has shown significant volatility, with InvestingPro data revealing a 55% decline over the past year, though it has rebounded 80% in the last six months.

Captivision’s media glass products are used globally in a variety of applications, including sports stadiums, entertainment venues, and airports. However, the company now faces significant regulatory hurdles that put its Nasdaq listing at risk.

This news is based on a press release statement from Captivision and does not include any promotional content. The company’s future on the Nasdaq Global Market hangs in the balance as it navigates these compliance challenges.

In other recent news, Captivision Inc. has encountered compliance issues with Nasdaq due to a delay in filing its annual report for the year ending December 31, 2024. The company has received a notice from Nasdaq’s Listing Qualifications Department, which has not immediately affected its listing or trading but adds to previous non-compliance warnings. Captivision has until July 21, 2025, to present a compliance plan, with the potential for an extension until November 11, 2025, to meet the necessary criteria. Failure to comply could result in delisting from the Nasdaq Stock Market. In another development, Captivision has expanded its Board of Directors by appointing Richard "Ric" Clark, who will also chair the Compensation Committee. Clark’s extensive experience in real estate, mergers and acquisitions, and capital markets is expected to contribute to the company’s growth. This appointment follows another recent addition to the board, reflecting a strategic enhancement of Captivision’s leadership.
