On March 22, 2024, Gyre Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company”) received a letter from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC
(“Nasdaq”) informing the Company that it had regained compliance with the audit committee composition requirements as set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5605 for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market.
As previously disclosed, on January 17, 2024, the Company was notified by Nasdaq that it was not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5605 because its Audit Committee was not comprised of at least three “independent directors” (as defined in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5605(a)(2)).
The Company was initially given 180 days to regain compliance.
To regain compliance, the Company was required to identify and select a member of the board of directors of the Company (the “Board”) who qualifies as
“independent” and would meet the audit committee criteria set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5605. This requirement was met on March 20, 2024, when the Board appointed Rodney Nussbaum as a member of the
Audit Committee of the Board.
SIGNATURES
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the
undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
