Horizon Aircraft retains Nasdaq listing, gains compliance extension

TORONTO - Horizon Aircraft Ltd. (NASDAQ: HOVR), a $25 million market cap eVTOL aircraft developer, has announced its compliance with Nasdaq's Equity Standard, ensuring its continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market. Despite a 10% decline in the past week, according to InvestingPro data, the company also received an extension until July 14, 2025, to meet the Bid Price Rule.

The aerospace engineering firm, which specializes in hybrid electric Vertical Take-Off and Landing (eVTOL) aircraft, stated that it had received a written notice from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC. This notice confirmed that Horizon Aircraft had satisfied the Equity Standard in Listing Rule 5550(b)(1), which pertains to shareholders' equity requirements. InvestingPro analysis shows the company maintains a healthy current ratio of 2.76, with liquid assets exceeding short-term obligations.

In addition to maintaining its listing status, Horizon Aircraft has been granted an additional 180 days to comply with the Bid Price Rule, which requires the company's stock to maintain a minimum bid price. This extension provides the company with the opportunity to adjust its share price to meet Nasdaq's requirements.

Horizon Aircraft is developing what it describes as one of the world's first hybrid eVTOL aircraft. The company's design philosophy emphasizes mission capability, prioritizing safety, performance, and utility. The aim is to create an aircraft capable of performing missions akin to traditional aircraft but with the added benefits of industry-leading speed and range.

The press release also contained forward-looking statements regarding Horizon Aircraft's market competition, regulatory changes, capital requirements, and product development. These statements are subject to various risks and uncertainties, and actual results may differ materially from the projections.

Investors and interested parties are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date they are made. Horizon Aircraft may update these statements in the future, but there is no obligation to do so unless required by law.
