Clearmind Medicine Receives Nasdaq Notification Regarding Minimum Stockholders' Equity Deficiency

The Notification Letter has no immediate effect on the Company's listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market at this time, nor are the Company's business operations affected by receipt of the Notification Letter

Vancouver, Canada, Nov. 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Clearmind Medicine Inc. (NASDAQ:CMND), (FSE: CWY0) ("Clearmind" or the "Company"), a clinical-stage biotech company focused on discovery and development of novel psychedelic-derived therapeutics to solve major under-treated health problems, today announced that the Company received a written notification (the "Notification Letter") from the Listing Qualifications Department of the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC ("Nasdaq") dated November 3, 2025, notifying the Company that it is no longer in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) (the "Rule").

The Rule requires companies listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market to maintain a minimum of $2,500,000 in stockholders' equity for continued listing. However, based on the Company's Form 6-K filed on September 11, 2025, where the Company filed its unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended July 31, 2025, the Company reported a stockholders' equity of $1,065,668, and does not meet the alternatives of market value of listed securities or net income from continuing operations, and is thus non-compliant with the Rule.

The Notification Letter has no immediate effect on the Company's listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market at this time and the Company's common shares continue to trade on Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol "CMND", nor are the Company's business operations affected by receipt of the Notification Letter. In accordance with the Nasdaq Listing Rules, the Company has 45 calendar days, or until December 18, 2025, to submit a plan to regain compliance. If the plan is accepted, Nasdaq can grant an extension of up to 180 calendar days from receipt of the Notification Letter to evidence compliance.

The Company is looking into various options available to regain compliance and maintain its continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market. The Company intends to submit the compliance plan as soon as practicable. There can be no assurance that the Company's plan will be accepted or the Company will be able to regain compliance with the Rule.

As previously announced, on September 17, 2025, the Company entered into securities purchase agreements with investors pursuant to which the Company shall issue and sell, from time to time, convertible promissory notes (the "Notes") in the aggregate principal amount of up to $10,000,000. On October 30, 2025 and October 31, 2025, an aggregate of $1,045,062 of outstanding amounts due under the Notes were converted into 885,000 of the Company's common shares. The Company expects that it will be able to demonstrate compliance with the Nasdaq stockholders' equity requirement if additional portions of the Notes are converted.
