Nasdaq Delisting Notice and Hearing Request
London, United Kingdom July 28, 2025 --( )-- Argo Blockchain plc ('Argo' or the 'Company') Argo Receives Nasdaq Delisting Notice and Intends to Request a Hearing As previously announced, on 16 January 2025, Argo Blockchain plc (LSE: ARB; Nasdaq: ARBK) received a letter from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC Listing Qualifications Department ('Nasdaq') indicating that it was not in compliance with the minimum bid price requirement set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(a)(1) because the bid price of Argo's American Depositary Shares ('ADSs') closed below $1.00 per share for 30 consecutive business days. Argo announces today that it received a letter from Nasdaq dated 18 July 2025, indicating that Argo has not regained compliance with the minimum bid price requirement pursuant to the cure period provided by Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A) by the prescribed deadline of 15 July 2025, and that, as a result, Nasdaq has determined to delist Argo's ADSs from the Nasdaq Global Select Market. In accordance with the Nasdaq Listing Rules, Argo intends to request a hearing before a Nasdaq Hearings Panel. The hearing request will automatically stay any suspension or delisting action pending the conclusion of the hearings process and it is expected that the Company's securities will continue to trade on Nasdaq under its trading symbol: ARBK. There can be no assurance that Argo will be able to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement or will otherwise be in compliance with all other applicable Nasdaq Listing Rules, or that Argo's hearing will be successful. If Argo's securities are suspended from trading on or delisted from Nasdaq, it could become more difficult to buy or sell Argo's ADSs or to obtain accurate quotations, and the price of Argo's ADSs could suffer a material decline. Further announcements will be made as appropriate. This announcement contains inside information.

Salarius Pharmaceuticals Granted Additional Extension to Regain Compliance with Nasdaq's Stockholders' Equity Standard
HOUSTON, July 14, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Salarius Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: SLRX) (Salarius or the Company) announces that on July 10, 2025 the Company received notification from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (Nasdaq) of an additional extension to regain compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) (Equity Standard) by late July 2025. As previously disclosed, Salarius must also regain compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (Minimum Bid Price Requirement) by early August 2025. On April 23, 2025, Salarius was notified by Nasdaq that it was not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) because the closing bid price of Salarius' common stock for the prior 30 consecutive business days was lower than the minimum bid price requirement of $1.00 per share. On March 26, 2025, Nasdaq notified the Company that it no longer complied with the requirement under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) to maintain a minimum of $2.5 million in stockholders' equity for continued listing on The Nasdaq Stock Market. On June 16, 2025, Salarius disclosed that the Nasdaq Hearings Panel had granted an extension contingent on Salarius achieving milestones that consist of regaining compliance with the Equity Standard by early July 2025, and regaining compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement by early August 2025. On January 13, 2025, Salarius announced entry into a definitive merger agreement for a business combination with Decoy Therapeutics, Inc. (Decoy), a privately held preclinical biopharmaceutical company engineering the next generation of peptide conjugate therapeutics. Under the definitive agreement announced on January 13, 2025, Decoy will merge with a wholly owned subsidiary of Salarius, subject to the closing conditions set forth in the agreement. The newly formed company will be named Decoy Therapeutics. About the Planned Merger The proposed transaction, if consummated, is expected to facilitate multiple value-creating inflection points with Decoy's pipeline of peptide conjugate therapeutics engineered by its IMP 3 ACT platform, which allows for the rapid computational design and manufacturing of innovative peptide conjugate therapeutics. Decoy's product pipeline targets unmet needs in respiratory infectious diseases and gastroenterology (GI) oncology indications. In addition to advancing the development of Decoy's IMP 3 ACT platform, the combined company intends to incorporate Salarius' oral small molecule protein degrader SP-3164 into a highly targeted peptide-based proteolysis targeting chimeras (PROTACS) drug candidate. The combined company will be led by Decoy's Co-founders, Chief Executive Officer Frederick 'Rick' Pierce and Chief Scientific Officer Barbara Hibner, by Decoy's Chief Business Officer Peter Marschel, Chief Technology Officer Mike Lipp, by acting Chief Medical Officer and Scientific Advisory Board Chair Shahin Gharakhanian, M.D. and by Salarius' Chief Financial Officer Mark Rosenblum. During the next 12 months, Decoy expects to advance its lead asset, a pan-coronavirus antiviral, to the filing of an Investigational New Drug (IND) application with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and to make progress with its other programs including a broad-acting antiviral against flu, COVID-19 and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), and a peptide drug conjugate targeting GI cancers. Also during this time, data may be reported from an investigator-initiated Phase 1/2 clinical study at MD Anderson Cancer Center evaluating Salarius' seclidemstat as a potential treatment for myelodysplastic syndrome and chronic myelomonocytic leukemia in patients with limited treatment options. About Decoy Therapeutics, Inc. Decoy Therapeutics is a preclinical-stage biotechnology company that is leveraging machine learning and artificial intelligence tools alongside high-speed synthesis techniques to rapidly design, engineer and manufacture peptide conjugate drug candidates that target serious unmet medical needs. The company's initial pipeline is focused on respiratory viruses and GI cancers. Decoy has attracted financing from institutional investors as well as significant non-dilutive capital from the Massachusetts Life Sciences Seed Fund, the Google AI startup program and the NVIDIA Inception program among other sources. The company has also received QuickFire Challenge award funding provided by the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA) through BLUE KNIGHT™, a collaboration between Johnson & Johnson Innovation – JLABS and BARDA within the Administration for Strategic Preparedness and Response.
