Interactive Brokers shares jump as it secures spot in S&P 500
Lottery.com Inc. (NASDAQ:LTRY), currently trading at $1.33 with a market capitalization of $35.5 million, has regained compliance with Nasdaq's minimum bid price requirement, according to a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Monday.
The Fort Worth, Texas-based company received a letter from Nasdaq on June 20 confirming that it had satisfied the exchange's listing rule requiring a minimum bid price of $1.00 per share. The company's common stock closed at or above the $1.00 threshold for twenty consecutive business days from May 21 through June 18, 2025. This compliance achievement comes amid an impressive 186% price surge over the past six months, according to InvestingPro data.
This development resolves the compliance issue that began when Lottery.com received a deficiency notice from Nasdaq on May 9, after its stock failed to maintain the minimum bid price for thirty consecutive business days.
According to the SEC filing, Nasdaq has now closed the matter, allowing the company to maintain its listing on the exchange without further remedial actions.
