DeFi Technologies, a Toronto-based financial technology firm, has been granted a 180-day extension by Nasdaq to address its failure to meet the $1 minimum bid price requirement. The company received the extension after its common shares closed below $1 for 30 consecutive business days, causing the initial compliance window to expire on September 1, 2026.

To regain compliance, the company must ensure its closing bid price reaches at least $1.00 for a minimum of ten consecutive trading days before the new deadline in early March 2027. While the company remains eligible for this period by meeting other listing standards, it noted there is no guarantee it will meet the requirements within the additional timeframe.
