A Bitcoin treasury management company, K Wave Media, is now facing scrutiny by regulators following a drop in its share value below its listing requirement. The company is now at risk of being delisted on Nasdaq.

Bitcoin Treasury K Wave Media Faces Nasdaq Removal

In their press release, the company revealed that it had been issued a formal notice by Nasdaq because it failed to meet the minimum bid price requirement.

According to the notice, the company’s shares have been trading below the required $1 for the period of late November 2025 and into January 2026. This led to a review under Nasdaq listing rules. The grace period of 180 days has however been given to this firm to regain compliance.

Within this window of time, the problem can be solved by the Bitcoin treasury company. This is provided their stock closes at or above $1 for at least ten consecutive trading days. In this process, if the condition was met, Nasdaq would send a confirmation in writing.

Importantly, this notice will not automatically result in delisting. K Wave Media will remain publicly traded with the current ticker symbol until the company comes into compliance.

If the company fails to satisfy the requirement within the initial period, it could be granted an additional 180-day period to comply. This is so long as the other requirements of the capital market are met.

The possible delisting comes months after the firm has already disclosed its BTC strategydisclosed its BTC strategy.

The fund was in the form of a $500 million convertible note agreement from the Anson Funds.

In this plan, the company committed to allocating at least 80% of the net proceeds for the purchase of Bitcoin.
