ScanTech AI Systems Inc. (NASDAQ: STAI) confirmed that its common stock has met Nasdaq’s minimum bid‑price requirement of $1.00 per share for the required period, a critical step in maintaining its Nasdaq listing. The company’s stock closed above the threshold on the day of the announcement, and Nasdaq has formally closed the bid‑price deficiency.
The company’s compliance package also resolved earlier shortfalls in periodic reporting and the minimum value of publicly held shares. ScanTech filed its Form 10‑Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, and an amended Form 10‑Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, bringing it into line with Nasdaq’s reporting rules. A 1‑for‑20 reverse stock split, approved on December 15, 2025 and effective after market close, lifted the share price above the $1.00 floor and was a key component of the bid‑price fix.
Despite these gains, ScanTech still faces a pending hearing on the Minimum Value of Listed Securities requirement, scheduled for January 22, 2026. The company’s market capitalization is approximately $10.96 million, and its financial health score is rated “WEAK” by InvestingPro, reflecting a high debt burden and limited liquidity. Management has entered into creditor discussions to restructure outstanding obligations, a move that could improve the company’s balance sheet if successful.
CEO Dolan Falconer said the compliance achievements “demonstrate the team’s disciplined execution and commitment to meeting regulatory standards.” He added that the company remains focused on expanding its AI‑driven non‑intrusive CT screening platform, which serves airports, seaports, and government facilities, and that the reverse split was a tactical measure to address the bid‑price rule without altering the underlying business model.
The reverse split and compliance fixes have not yet translated into improved valuation. The stock trades around $2.90, far below its 52‑week high of $104.00, underscoring that while regulatory compliance is restored, investors still view the company’s financial fundamentals as fragile. The upcoming hearing will be a decisive moment for the company’s continued Nasdaq presence.
