Li-Cycle Receives Continued Listing Standard Notice from NYSE

Li-Cycle Holdings Corp. (NYSE: LICY) (“Li-Cycle” or the “Company”), a leading global lithium-ion battery resource recovery company, today announced that it has received written notice (the "Notice") from the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) indicating that the Company is not in compliance with Section 802.01C of the NYSE’s continued listing standards because the average closing price of Li-Cycle’s common stock was less than $1.00 over a consecutive 30 trading-day period.

Li-Cycle has advised the NYSE of its intention to cure the deficiency and is considering all available options in this regard. Under the NYSE’s rules, Li-Cycle has a six-month period following receipt of the Notice to bring its average closing share price to at least $1.00 over the prior 30 trading-day period.

The Notice has no immediate effect on the listing of the Company’s common shares on the NYSE, subject to the Company’s compliance with the NYSE’s other continued listing requirements, and does not affect Li-Cycle’s ongoing business operations or its reporting obligations under the rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission or the Ontario Securities Commission.

At our Spokes, or pre-processing facilities, we recycle battery manufacturing scrap and end-of-life batteries to produce black mass, a powder-like substance which contains a number of valuable metals, including lithium, nickel, and cobalt. At our Hubs, or post-processing facilities, we will process black mass to produce critical battery-grade materials, including lithium carbonate, nickel sulphate, and cobalt sulphate.
