S&P 500 slips, but losses kept in check as Nvidia climbs ahead of results
CAMBRIDGE, MA – Vor Biopharma Inc., a biotechnology company specializing in biological products, has been notified of noncompliance with Nasdaq’s minimum bid price requirement. The company’s stock, traded under the ticker (NASDAQ:VOR), currently trading at $0.72 and with a market capitalization of $90 million, has been below the $1.00 threshold for 30 consecutive business days. InvestingPro data shows the stock has declined over 57% in the past year.
The notice, received on Monday, does not immediately affect the company’s listing on the Nasdaq Global Select Market. However, Vor Biopharma must boost its share price to at least $1.00 for ten consecutive business days within the next 180 days, or by October 20, 2025, to regain compliance. According to InvestingPro analysis, while the company maintains strong liquidity with a current ratio of 5.19 and holds more cash than debt, it is currently burning through cash rapidly. InvestingPro’s Fair Value analysis suggests the stock is currently undervalued.
If compliance is not achieved by the deadline, Vor Biopharma may be granted an additional 180 days if it transfers to The Nasdaq Capital Market and meets all other initial listing standards, except for the bid price. The company may also need to consider a reverse stock split as part of its strategy to meet the bid price requirement.
Failure to comply with these requirements could lead to delisting. Vor Biopharma has expressed its intention to actively monitor its stock price and explore options to meet Nasdaq’s standards. Nonetheless, there is no guarantee that the company will regain compliance or maintain its listing criteria.
