Perfect Moment faces NYSE American delisting over equity shortfall

Perfect Moment Ltd., an apparel manufacturer with a market capitalization of $20.8 million, has been notified by the NYSE American LLC of non-compliance with the exchange's minimum stockholders' equity requirements.

The notice, received on December 11, 2024, indicates that the company does not meet the stockholders' equity threshold of $4.0 million, as required for companies that have reported losses in three of the last four fiscal years. According to InvestingPro data, the stock has declined 75% over the past year, reflecting ongoing challenges.

As of September 30, 2024, Perfect Moment's stockholders' equity stood at $2.7 million, with the company recording losses in the recent fiscal years ending March 31, 2024. InvestingPro analysis reveals a concerning financial health score of 'WEAK', with the company burning through cash and maintaining a moderate debt-to-equity ratio of 1.04. This shortfall has triggered the NYSE American's compliance procedures outlined in Section 1009 of the Company Guide.

The company has been given until January 10, 2024, to present a plan detailing the measures it will take to regain compliance by June 11, 2026. Perfect Moment has expressed its intention to submit such a plan and, if accepted, will remain listed during the plan period, subject to regular reviews and quarterly monitoring for adherence.

Should the NYSE American reject the company's plan, delisting proceedings will begin, although Perfect Moment will have the right to appeal any delisting decision as per the exchange's guidelines.

Despite this development, the trading of Perfect Moment's common stock on the NYSE American continues unaffected for the time being. Moreover, the company's business operations and SEC reporting obligations remain unchanged by the receipt of this notification. This update is based on the information disclosed in the company's recent SEC filing.

In other recent news, Perfect Moment Ltd. has secured $2 million via a Convertible Secured Note Purchase Agreement with an accredited investor. The note carries a 15% annual interest rate and is set to mature in a year. The company also secured $1.57 million in loans from Agile Lending, LLC and Agile Capital Funding, LLC, which require weekly repayments and may be settled early with a prepayment fee.

In strategic moves, Perfect Moment has announced a partnership with luxury fashion sales agency CD Network to boost its North American presence and expanded its Perfect Second Moment resale program across Europe. These recent developments highlight the company's ongoing efforts to strengthen its financial standing, commitment to sustainable practices, and expansion strategy in key markets.

Perfect Moment's partnership with CD Network aims to enhance its brand visibility for the Fall/Winter 2025 collection. The company's resale program expansion in Europe underscores its dedication to sustainability and circular fashion principles. The company's financial agreements and strategic partnerships are recent developments in its ongoing efforts to bolster its financial position and brand presence.
