SAN JOSE, Calif. - Momentus Inc. (NASDAQ: MNTS), a prominent U.S. commercial space company offering satellite buses, transportation services, and in-space infrastructure services, has disclosed that it has received a formal notice from the Nasdaq Capital Market LLC (Nasdaq) regarding its non-compliance with the requirements of Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1). This non-compliance is a result of Momentus failing to timely file its Form 10-K with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
The deficiency notification from Nasdaq raises concerns over Momentus’ adherence to the required regulatory filings and could potentially impact the Company’s listing on the Nasdaq stock exchange.
Additionally, Momentus has previously announced that it successfully completed all requirements of the National Security Agreement (NSA) it entered into with the U.S. Department of the Treasury in July 2021. This agreement ensures that Momentus meets national security standards.
With its focus on advancing space technology, Momentus is actively performing in-space testing of its Microwave Electrothermal Thruster (MET) and has recently completed the initial in-space testing of its Tape Spring Solar Array (TASSA). The MET serves as the primary propulsion system for their Vigoride Orbital Service Vehicles (OSV).
The Company’s ability to successfully test and implement these innovative technologies is crucial in solidifying Momentus’ position as a leading provider of space infrastructure services.
Momentus will need to rectify the non-compliance issue expeditiously to regain compliance with Nasdaq requirements and protect its listing status. The matter underscores the importance of timely regulatory filings for companies in maintaining a strong market reputation.
The news concerning Momentus’ notification from Nasdaq highlights the challenges that the Company currently faces; however, it also signifies their successful completion of the NSA requirements and their ongoing commitment to developing sustainable spacecraft engines and advanced solar arrays.
While the delay in filing the Form 10-K raises concerns, investors and stakeholders will closely watch Momentus’ actions to address this compliance issue and its progress in testing and implementing its in-space technologies.
