WF International Limited (NASDAQ: WXM) received a formal notice from Nasdaq’s Listing Qualifications Department on December 30, 2025, after its ordinary shares had closed below the required $1.00 minimum bid price for 33 consecutive business days from November 6 to December 23. The letter warns that the company must restore the minimum bid price within 180 days, ending June 22, 2026, or risk further grace periods and potential delisting.
The notification follows a sharp decline in the company’s share price, which has fallen 88.65% year‑to‑date and 81.96% over the past six months. WF International’s market capitalization has slipped to roughly $4.3 million, reflecting the market’s concern over its ability to meet listing standards. The company’s revenue for the most recent fiscal year was $21.41 million, a modest 3‑year growth rate of 2.6%, and its operating margin contracted to 5.24% from a historical median of 8.82%. Net margin sits at 0.96%, underscoring limited profitability.
The business is centered on integrated electromechanical solutions for HVAC, floor heating, and water purification systems, primarily serving industrial and residential customers in China. Segment data show that HVAC sales account for the largest share of revenue, but the company has struggled to maintain pricing power amid intense competition and rising material costs. The decline in operating margin is largely attributable to higher input costs and a shift toward lower‑margin product lines.
Management has not yet outlined a specific remediation plan, but the Nasdaq letter allows for a 180‑day compliance period, during which the company may consider a reverse stock split to boost the share price. A reverse split would consolidate shares and raise the price per share, potentially satisfying the $1.00 threshold without requiring a fundamental change in operations. However, such a move could dilute existing shareholders and may not address underlying financial weaknesses.
The regulatory risk has already influenced investor sentiment, as evidenced by a 8.79% increase in the stock price on December 30, 2025, following the announcement. While the rise suggests some short‑term optimism, the long‑term outlook remains uncertain because the company must demonstrate sustained compliance and improve its financial fundamentals to avoid delisting.
Analysts and investors will closely monitor the company’s next earnings report and any management commentary on the steps being taken to restore compliance. A failure to meet the June 22 deadline could trigger a second 180‑day grace period, after which Nasdaq may initiate delisting proceedings, severely limiting liquidity and potentially forcing a sale of assets or a strategic partnership to survive.
