Zevia PBC (“Zevia” or the “Company”) (NYSE: ZVIA), today announced that on June 26, 2024, it received notice (the “Notice”) from the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) informing the Company that it is no longer in compliance with Section 802.01C of the NYSE Listed Company Manual because the average closing price of the Company’s Class A common stock (the “common stock”) was less than $1.00 per share over a consecutive 30 trading-day period. The Notice does not result in the immediate delisting of the Company’s common stock from the NYSE.

In accordance with applicable NYSE rules, the Company intends to respond to the NYSE within 10 business days of receipt of the Notice affirming its intent to cure the deficiency. The Company intends to remain listed on the NYSE and is considering all available options to regain compliance with the NYSE’s continued listing standards.

The Company can regain compliance at any time within a six-month cure period following its receipt of the Notice if, on the last trading day of any calendar month during such cure period, the Company has both: (i) a closing share price of at least $1.00 and (ii) an average closing share price of at least $1.00 over the 30 trading-day period ending on the last trading day of the applicable calendar month.

The Notice has no immediate impact on the listing of the Company’s common stock, which will continue to be listed and traded on the NYSE during the cure period, subject to the Company’s compliance with other NYSE continued listing standards. Furthermore, the Notice is not anticipated to impact the ongoing business operations of the Company or its reporting requirements with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
