At $0.3186, that share count implies about $302.6 million of total equity market value.<\/p>\n<p>Total market value is not Nasdaq&#8217;s unrestricted public-float measure, and public filings do not establish required holder and market-maker counts. Nasdaq still controls the eligibility determination.<\/p>\n<p>The timestamped SEC submissions feed and Datavault&#8217;s press-release index showed no extension or Staff Delisting Determination at the Aug. 24 refresh.<\/p>\n<p>The only authority located in the reviewed SEC filings was a 2025 authorization permitting a 1-for-5 to 1-for-20 split no later than that year&#8217;s annual meeting. The SEC submissions feed showed no newer proxy or information statement granting replacement authority.<\/p>\n<p>A reverse split would mechanically reduce the share count and, absent other factors, raise the per-share price. It would not itself create economic value, guarantee that DVLT stays above $1, or resolve Datavault&#8217;s separate capital needs.<\/p>\n<p>Datavault agreed to sell 109.1 million shares at $0.55 in May and reported $1.4 million of cash alongside $79.96 million of operating cash use for the first half. Recent reports detailed those financing pressures in connection with the company&#8217;s proposed bank acquisition.<\/p>\n<p>The decisive signal is now a formal exchange or company notice. An additional period would postpone the bid-price test, while a Staff Delisting Determination would begin the next listing process.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>AI,Earnings,Featured,TradFi,Trading,regulationAI,regulation#Datavault #hits #Nasdaq #deadline #extension #delisting #decision #looms1787623693<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Datavault AI reaches its Nasdaq minimum bid-price deadline on Aug. 24, with DVLT 68% below the exchange&#8217;s $1 threshold and no disclosed decision on whether the company will receive more time or a delisting notice.
