GameSquare receives Nasdaq compliance extension

GameSquare Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:GAME), an entertainment and esports company with a market capitalization of $28.5 million and current stock price of $0.87, has been granted an extension by the Nasdaq to address compliance issues related to the timing of its annual shareholder meeting. According to InvestingPro data, the company’s shares have declined 44% over the past year, while trading at relatively low revenue multiples. On January 23, 2025, GameSquare received a notification from Nasdaq stating that the company had not held an annual meeting within twelve months following the end of its fiscal year on December 31, 2023, as required by Nasdaq Listing Rules.

The company, which conducted a special shareholders meeting on February 27, 2024, believes it has complied with the rules, citing its previous status as a British Columbia entity before changing its domicile to Delaware on March 7, 2024. GameSquare argues that its governance under former Articles of Incorporation should be taken into account. InvestingPro analysis reveals concerning financial metrics, including negative EBITDA of -$22.8 million and weak gross profit margins of about 20%.

Despite the notification, GameSquare’s securities continue to be listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market without immediate impact. The company has proactively scheduled its annual meeting for March 12, 2025, in anticipation of resolving the issue and had informed Nasdaq of this planned meeting before receiving the notice.

Nasdaq has provided GameSquare until the scheduled annual meeting date to regain compliance with the listing requirements. GameSquare remains committed to fulfilling all necessary conditions to maintain its listing status.
