Brüush Receives Nasdaq Delisting Notification and Files to Appeal

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / March 1, 2024 / Bruush Oral Care Inc. (NASDAQ:BRSH) (the "Company"), today announced that it has received a notice (the "Notice") from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market, LLC ("Nasdaq") on February 27, 2024 notifying the Company of Nasdaq's determination to delist the Company's common shares from The Nasdaq Capital Market because the Company's common shares had a closing bid price of $0.10 or less for ten consecutive trading days as of February 26, 2024, which triggered a notice of delisting pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A)(iii) (the "Low Priced Stocks Rule").

In addition to the Low Priced Stocks Rule delisting notice, as previously reported, the Company also currently fails to satisfy the requirement that the closing bid price of its common shares remain at $1.00 or higher, as required by Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2), and had received a notice from Nasdaq in that regard on November 15, 2023.

The Notice stated that the Company may appeal the Staff's determination to a Hearings Panel (the "Panel") pursuant to the procedures set forth in the Nasdaq Listing Rule 5800 Series. On February 28, 2023, the Company requested a hearing before the Panel. The hearing has been scheduled for April 25, 2024.

The hearing process automatically stays the suspension of the Company's common shares pending the Panel's decision and the expiration of any additional extension period granted by the Panel following the hearing. At the hearing, the Company intends to present a plan to regain compliance with the applicable rules for continued listing. There can be no assurance as to the decision of the Panel.

The Company intends to monitor the closing bid price of its ordinary shares and may, if appropriate, consider implementing available options, including a reverse share split, to regain compliance with the Nasdaq Listing Rules for continued listing on Nasdaq.
