BEIJING, June 2, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Pintec Technology Holdings Limited (Nasdaq: PT) ("PINTEC" or the "Company"), a leading independent technology platform enabling financial services in China, today announced that it has received a notification letter from the Listing Qualifications Department of the Nasdaq Stock Market ("Nasdaq"), informing the Company that it has regained compliance with the minimum bid price requirement set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(a)(1).

As previously announced, the Company was notified by Nasdaq on December 9, 2021 that it was not in compliance with the minimum bid price requirement set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(a)(1), as the closing bid price of the Company's American Depositary Shares (the "ADSs") had been below US$1.00 for more than 30 consecutive business days. In order to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement, the Company changed the ratio of the ADSs representing its ordinary shares from one (1) ADS representing seven (7) class A ordinary shares to one (1) ADS representing thirty-five (35) class A ordinary shares. The change of the ADS ratio became effective on May 16, 2022.

On June 1, 2022, Nasdaq provided confirmation to the Company that for the last 10 consecutive business days, from May 16, 2022 to May 27, 2022, the closing bid price of the Company's common stock has been at US$1.00 per share or greater. Accordingly, the Company has regained compliance with Listing Rule 5450(a)(1) and this matter is now closed.
