On June 18, 2025, Nuwellis, Inc. (the ***"Company"***) received a letter (the ***"Deficiency Notice"***) from the Listing Qualifications Department (the ***"Staff"***) of the Nasdaq Stock Market (***"Nasdaq"***) informing the Company that because the closing bid price for the Company's common stock listed on Nasdaq was below $1.00 for 30 consecutive trading days, the Company is not in compliance with the minimum bid price requirement for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market, as set forth in Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5550(a)(2) (the ***"Minimum Bid Price Requirement"***).

The Deficiency Notice also indicated that the Company is not eligible for any compliance period specified in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A) because the Company effected a reverse stock split over the prior one-year period or has effected one or more reverse stock splits over the prior two-year period with a cumulative ratio of 250 shares or more to one; accordingly, the Company was informed that its securities were subject to delisting from Nasdaq unless the Company timely requested a hearing before the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the "***Panel***"). As previously disclosed, the Company effected a reverse stock split of its Common Stock on June 27, 2024.

At its annual meeting held on May 20, 2025, the Company's stockholders approved a proposal allowing the board of directors of the Company to effect a reverse split in the range of 1-for-5 to 1-for-70. The Company's board of directors intends to effect a reverse stock split in the near term in order to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement.

The Company intends to timely submit a request for a hearing and the Company's securities will then remain listed and eligible for trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market at least pending the ultimate conclusion of any hearing process. There can be no assurance that the Panel will grant the Company's request for continued listing or that the Company will be able to regain compliance and thereafter maintain its listing on Nasdaq.

*Cautionary Note Regarding Forward Looking Statements*

This Current Report on Form 8-K contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act and Private Securities Litigation Reform Act, as amended, and as such are not historical facts. This includes, without limitation, statements regarding the Company's plans to appeal the Company's intent or ability to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement, the outcome of a Nasdaq hearing and appeal process, and the anticipated actions by the Nasdaq Staff and the Company's responses and their anticipated outcome, and the ability for the Company's securities to remain listed on Nasdaq. These statements constitute projections, forecasts and forward-looking statements, and are not guarantees of performance. Such statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. When used in this communication, words such as "anticipate," "believe," "continue," "could," "estimate," "expect," "intend," "may," "might," "plan," "possible," "potential," "predict," "project," "should," "strive," "would" and similar expressions may identify forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. When the Company discusses its strategies or plans, it is making projections, forecasts or forward-looking statements. Such statements are based on the beliefs of, as well as assumptions made by and information currently available to, the Company's management. Such factors include those set forth in the Company's filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Prospective investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this press release. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
