As previously reported, on April 1, 2020, Citius Pharmaceuticals, Inc., or the Company, received written notice from The Nasdaq Stock Market, or Nasdaq, indicating that, because the closing bid price for the Company’s common stock has fallen below $1.00 per share for 30 consecutive business days, the Company no longer complied with the $1.00 minimum bid price requirement for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market under Rule 5550(a)(2) of the Nasdaq Listing Rules.

On July 10, 2020, the Company received written notice from Nasdaq that the Company had regained compliance with Rule 5550(a)(2) because the Company’s common stock had closed at a price greater than $1.00 for the 10 consecutive trading days between June 25 and July 9, 2020. As a result, Nasdaq has closed the matter.
