Beyond Air received a Nasdaq delisting notice on April 7, 2026, for failing to maintain the $1.00 minimum bid price. Uniquely, the company is ineligible for the standard 180-day compliance period because it already executed a 1-for-20 reverse stock split within the preceding 12-month period.

- Failure of a previous 1-for-20 reverse split (July 2025) to maintain the stock price above $1.00 for even one year.
- Potential for a second reverse stock split within a 12-month period, which often signals chronic value erosion.
