CRANBURY, N.J., July 11, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Oncobiologics, Inc. (Nasdaq: ONS ) today announced that, on July 10, 2018, the Company received formal notice from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC that the Company has evidenced compliance with the applicable requirements for the continued listing of the Company’s securities on The Nasdaq Capital Market, including the minimum $35 million market value of listed securities requirement. Accordingly, the Company’s previously disclosed matter before the Nasdaq Hearings Panel has been closed.

The Company remains subject to a 180-day grace period, through October 23, 2018, to regain compliance with Nasdaq’s minimum $1.00 per share bid price requirement for continued listing. In order to evidence compliance with that requirement, the Company must evidence a closing bid price of at least $1.00 per share for a minimum of ten consecutive business days on or before October 23, 2018. If the Company does not timely regain compliance, the Company’s securities would be subject to delisting; however, the Company would be entitled to request a hearing before a Nasdaq Hearings Panel, which request would stay any delisting action by Nasdaq pending the ultimate conclusion of the hearing process.
