US stock futures dip as Trump’s firing of Cook sparks Fed independence fears
QT Imaging Holdings, Inc., a medical device company specializing in electromedical apparatus, has been notified by The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC that proceedings to delist the company’s common stock have commenced. Effective today, the company’s shares, previously trading under the ticker QTI, have been suspended on Nasdaq and are now trading over-the-counter (OTC) under the symbol QTIH. The transition to OTC markets typically results in reduced trading volume and analyst coverage, potentially affecting stock liquidity.

The delisting proceedings were initiated after QT Imaging Holdings failed to meet the Nasdaq Global Market’s continued listing requirements. On May 10, 2024, the company was first warned that its Market Value of Listed Securities (MVLS) had fallen below the $50 million threshold. Subsequent notices on June 17 and September 10, 2024, indicated non-compliance with the minimum bid price requirement and the Market Value of Publicly Held Securities (MVPHS) requirement, respectively.
Despite an appeal to a Nasdaq Hearings Panel, the company was unable to regain compliance within the given timeframe. On January 24, 2025, the panel upheld the decision to delist based on the company’s failure to meet the MVLS and minimum bid price requirements. As a result, trading on Nasdaq was suspended as of the opening on January 28, 2025. Market data shows that approximately 15% of delisted companies successfully return to major exchanges within three years.
QT Imaging Holdings intends to apply for its common stock to be listed on the OTC Markets’ OTCQX or OTCQB market tier. The company also expressed its intention to reapply for Nasdaq listing if it meets the initial listing standards in the future.
The delisting is not expected to affect QT Imaging Holdings’ day-to-day operations. The company’s management team remains focused on its business plans and the future revenue potential.
