Swvl Receives Nasdaq Non-Compliance Notice

DUBAI, United Arab Emirates, Jan. 16, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Swvl Holdings Corp (“Swvl” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: SWVL), a global provider of transformative tech-enabled mass transit solutions, today announced that on January 11, 2023, it received written notice (the “Notice”) from The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) advising the Company that it was not in compliance with Listing Rule 5450(b)(2)(A) requiring companies listed on the Nasdaq Global Market to maintain a minimum market value of listed securities of $50,000,000 (the “MVLS Requirement”). The Notice has no effect at this time on the listing of the Company's ordinary shares, which continues to trade on The Nasdaq Global Market under the symbol “SWVL.”

In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(C), the Company has a period of 180 calendar days, or until July 10, 2023 (the “Compliance Date”), to regain compliance with the MVLS Requirement. To regain compliance, the Company's minimum market value of listed securities must close at $50,000,000 or more for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days prior to the Compliance Date. In the event the Company does not regain compliance with the MVLS Requirement prior to the Compliance Date, Nasdaq will notify the Company that its securities are subject to delisting, at which point the Company may appeal the delisting determination to a Nasdaq hearings panel.

The Company intends to actively monitor its minimum market value of listed securities and may, if appropriate, consider implementing available options to regain compliance with the MVLS Requirement. The Company may also choose to transfer the listing of its ordinary shares to The Nasdaq Capital Market. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to regain compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(b)(2)(A), or maintain compliance with any other listing requirements, or satisfy the requirements necessary to transfer the listing of its ordinary shares to The Nasdaq Capital Market.
