GWG Holdings Receives Nasdaq Notification of Non-Compliance With Listing Rule 5250(c)(1)
April 22, 2021 at 4:30 PM EDT

DALLAS, April 22, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- GWG Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: GWGH) today announced that it received a letter (the Letter) from the Listing Qualifications Department of the Nasdaq Stock Market (Nasdaq) notifying the company that it was not in compliance with requirements of Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) as a result of not having timely filed its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020 (the Form 10-K).

The Letter has no immediate effect on the listing or trading of GWGH’s common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market. The Letter states that the company is required to submit a plan to regain compliance with Rule 5250(c)(1) within 60 calendar days from the date of the Letter. If the plan is accepted by Nasdaq, then Nasdaq can grant the company up to 180 calendar days from the due date of the Form 10-K to regain compliance.

GWGH anticipates that it will file its Form 10-K prior to the 60-day deadline and thereby regain compliance with the Nasdaq continued listing requirements.
