On April 4, 2023, Hycroft Mining Holding Corporation (the “Company”) received a letter (the “Extension Notice”) from the Listing Qualifications Staff of The Nasdaq Stock Market, LLC (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that Nasdaq has granted the Company a 180-day extension, until October 2, 2023 (the “Extension Period”), to regain compliance with the requirement for the Company’s Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”), to maintain a minimum bid price of $1.00 per share for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market, as set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Minimum Bid Price Requirement”).

The Extension Notice has no immediate effect on the continued listing status of the Common Stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market, and the Common Stock continues to be listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the stock symbol “HYMC”.

Nasdaq's determination was based on the Company meeting the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other applicable requirements for initial listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market with the exception of the Minimum Bid Price Requirement, and the Company’s written notice of its intention to cure the deficiency during the second compliance period by effecting a reverse stock split, if necessary.

If at any time during the Extension Period the closing bid price of the Common Stock is at least $1.00 per share for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days, Nasdaq will provide written confirmation of compliance and this matter will be closed. If the Company chooses to implement a reverse stock split, it must complete the reverse stock split no later than 10 business days prior to expiration of the Extension Period in order to timely regain compliance.

As previously disclosed in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K, filed on October 3, 2022, the Company received notice from Nasdaq that the Company was not in compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement for a period of 30 consecutive business days (the “Initial Notice”). As provided in the Initial Notice, the Company had a 180-day period, until April 3, 2023, to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. As of the date of this Report, the Company has not yet regained compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement, and instead advised Nasdaq of its intent to cure the deficiency within the Extension Period.

The Company will continue to monitor the closing bid price of its Common Stock and seek to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement within the Extension Period. If the Company does not regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement within the Extension Period, Nasdaq will provide written notification to the Company that its Common Stock will be subject to delisting, at which time the Company may appeal Nasdaq’s delisting determination to a Nasdaq Hearing Panel (the “Panel”). There can be no assurance that, if the Company does need to appeal a Nasdaq delisting determination to the Panel, that such appeal would be successful.

On April 4, 2023, the Company issued a press release announcing that Nasdaq had granted its request for a 180-day extension to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.

The information in this Current Report on Form 8-K under Item 7.01, including the information contained in Exhibit 99.1, is being furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission, and shall not be deemed to be “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, and shall not be deemed to be incorporated by reference into any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by a specific reference in such filing.

The information set forth in Item 7.01 above regarding the Extension Notice and Nasdaq’s grant of a 180-day extension to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement is incorporated herein by reference.
