Vapotherm Announces NYSE Continued Listing Standard Notice Related to Stock Price

Vapotherm, Inc. (NYSE: VAPO), (“Vapotherm” or the “Company”), a global medical technology company focused on the development and commercialization of its proprietary Vapotherm high velocity therapy® products, which are used to treat patients of all ages suffering from respiratory distress, today announced that it was notified (the “Notice”) on November 30, 2022 by the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. (the “NYSE”) that the Company is not in compliance with the NYSE’s continued listing standard set forth in Section 802.01C of the NYSE’s Listed Company Manual because the average closing price of the Company’s common stock was less than $1.00 per share over a consecutive 30 trading-day period.

As set forth in the Notice, as of November 29, 2022, the 30-trading day average closing share price of the Company’s common stock was $0.98 per share.

Pursuant to Section 802.01C, the Company has a period of six months following receipt of the Notice to regain compliance with the minimum share price requirement. In order to regain compliance, on the last trading day of any calendar month during the cure period or on the last business day of the six month cure period, the Company’s shares of common stock must demonstrate (i) a closing price of at least $1.00 per share and (ii) an average closing share price of at least $1.00 over the 30 trading-day period ending on such date.

As of December 5, 2022, the closing share price of the Company’s common stock was $1.62 per share and the 30-trading day average closing share price of the Company’s common stock was $1.01.

As previously disclosed in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on October 3, 2022 (the “October 3, 2022 Form 8-K”), the Company received notice on September 27, 2022 that it was not in compliance with the continued listing standard set forth in Section 802.01B of the NYSE’s Listed Company Manual because the Company’s average global market capitalization for the prior 30 trading-day period was less than $50 million, and, at the same time, the Company’s stockholders’ equity was less than $50 million. The Company timely filed a plan to cure this deficiency with the NYSE on November 11, 2022 and this plan remains under review by the NYSE.

The Notice has no immediate impact on the listing of the Company’s common stock, which will continue to trade on the NYSE during the applicable cure period, subject to all other listing requirements of the NYSE. As previously disclosed in the October 3, 2022 Form 8-K, the Company’s common stock will continue to trade under the symbol “VAPO” with the added designation of “.BC” to indicate that the Company is not currently in compliance with NYSE continued listing standards. The “.BC” indicator will be removed at such time as the Company regains compliance with all continued listing standards.

The NYSE notification does not affect the Company’s business operations or its SEC reporting requirements, nor does it conflict with or cause an event of default under any of the Company’s debt agreements.
