WILMINGTON, DE / ACCESSWIRE / May 30, 2023 / Nocturne Acquisition Corporation (NASDAQ:MBTC, MBTCU, MBTCR) (the 'Company', 'MBTC'), today announced that it has received a second notification (the 'Second Notification') on May 24, 2023 from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market ('Nasdaq') as a result of its failure to file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2023 (the 'Form 10-Q'), and remaining delinquent in filing its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2022 (the 'Form 10-K'). The Second Notification advised the Company that it was not in compliance with Nasdaq's continued listing requirements under the timely filing criteria established in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1). The Company has since filed its Form 10-K, and is working diligently to complete and file the Form 10-Q as soon as practicable.
In accordance with Nasdaq's letter dated April 21, 2023, the Company has until June 20, 2023, to submit a plan to regain compliance with respect to these delinquent reports. Please note that any Staff exception to allow the Company to regain compliance, if granted, will be limited to a maximum of 180 calendar days from the due date of the Initial Delinquent Filing, or October 16, 2023. However, there can be no assurance that Nasdaq will accept the Company's plan to regain compliance or that the Company will be able to regain compliance within any extension period granted by Nasdaq. 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.
