As previously disclosed, on January 22, 2019, Nasdaq notified Sino-Global Shipping America, Ltd., a Virginia corporation (the “Company”) that it did not comply with the minimum bid price of $1.00 per share (the “Minimum Bid Price”) requirement in Listing Rule 5550(a)(2), and in accordance with Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), was granted 180 calendar days, until July 22, 2019, to regain compliance. Subsequently, on July 23, 2019, the Company was provided an additional 180 calendar day compliance period, or until January 20, 2020, to demonstrate compliance. On January 21, 2020, the Company was notified of Nasdaq’s delist determination as it had not regained compliance. On January 28, 2020, the Company requested a hearing, which was held on February 27, 2020. On March 10, 2020, the Company received a letter from Nasdaq stating that the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “Panel”) granted an exception to permit the Company to demonstrate compliance on or before May 8, 2020. On April 17, 2020, the Company requested and received an extension to demonstrate its compliance with the Nasdaq Minimum Bid Price requirement on or before July 23, 2020. The Company’s request was based on Nasdaq Issuer Notification 2020-2, which provides additional time to issuers to return to compliance with pricing related listing rules, including the Minimum Bid Price requirement.

Since then, Nasdaq has determined that for 11 consecutive trading days from July 7 through July 21, 2020, the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock has been closed above $1.00 per share. On July 22, 2020, the Panel notified the Company that it has regained compliance with Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) and the matter is now closed.

The Company issued a press release announcing that it had regained compliance with Nasdaq Marketplace Rules effective July 22, 2020. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1.
