CHICAGO, IL / ACCESSWIRE / April 19, 2024 / Cosmos Health Inc. ("Cosmos Health" or the "Company'') (NASDAQ:COSM), a diversified, vertically integrated global healthcare group engaged in innovative R&D, owner of proprietary pharmaceutical and nutraceutical brands, manufacturer and distributor of healthcare products, and operator of a telehealth platform, announced today that, on April 17, 2024, it received a notification letter from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC ("Nasdaq") stating that, because the Company has not yet filed its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2023 (the "Form 10-K"), the Company is no longer in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1). Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) requires listed companies to timely file all required periodic financial reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The Nasdaq letter has no immediate effect on the listing of the Company's shares. As a non-compliant company, an indicator reflecting the Company's non-compliance will be broadcast over Nasdaq's market data dissemination network and will also be made available to third party market data providers.

Nasdaq's notification letter states that the Company has 60 calendar days to submit to Nasdaq a plan to regain compliance with the Nasdaq Listing Rules. If Nasdaq accepts the Company's plan, then Nasdaq may grant the Company up to 180 days from the prescribed due date for filing the Form 10-K to regain compliance. If Nasdaq does not accept the Company's plan, then the Company will have the opportunity to appeal that decision to a Nasdaq hearings panel.

The Company intends to resolve the deficiency and regain compliance with the Nasdaq Listing Rules.

Greg Siokas, Chief Executive Officer of Cosmos Health, stated: "Our team is diligently working towards regaining compliance with the Nasdaq Listing Rules. We expect to achieve compliance in short order."
