Golden Sun Health Technology Group Limited Announces Receipt of Nasdaq Delisting Determination and Plan to Appeal

Shanghai, China, March 25, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Golden Sun Health Technology Group Limited, formerly known as Golden Sun Education Group Limited (the “Company” or “Golden Sun”) (Nasdaq: GSUN), a provider of tutorial services in China, today announced the Company received a staff determination letter (the “Letter”), on March 21, 2024, from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that, due to the Company's failure to regain compliance with a minimum bid price of $1.00 per share requirement for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market, as set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the "Minimum Bid Requirement"), the Staff has determined (the “Determination”) that Company's securities will be scheduled for delisting from Nasdaq unless the Company requests an appeal of this determination to a Hearings Panel (the "Panel").

On September 22, 2023, the Company received a letter from Nasdaq (the "Notice"), notifying the Company that based upon the closing bid price of its Class A ordinary shares for the last 30 consecutive business days preceding the Notice, the Company was not in compliance with the Minimum Bid Requirement. In accordance with Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Notice provided the Company a period of 180 calendar days from the date of the Notice, or until March 20, 2024, to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Requirement.

According to the Letter, the Company had not regained compliance with the Minimum Bid Requirement as of March 20, 2024 and is not eligible for a second 180-day period. Specifically, the Company does not comply with the initial listing requirement of $5,000,000 minimum stockholders’ equity for The Nasdaq Capital Market, as contemplated for a second 180-day period. Unless the Company requests an appeal of the Determination by March 28, 2024, the Company’s Class A ordinary shares will be suspended at the opening of business on April 2, 2024, and a Form 25-NSE will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which will remove the Company’s Class A ordinary shares from listing and registration on Nasdaq.

The Company plans to appeal the Determination to the Panel in due course. A hearing request will stay the suspension of the Company’s securities and the filing of Form 25-NSE pending the Panel’s decision. The Company is considering all options available to it, including a reverse stock split, and will provide its shareholders with material updates when they are available.
