NovaBay Pharmaceuticals, Inc. Regains Compliance with NYSE American Continued Listing Standards

EMERYVILLE, Calif., Oct. 20, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — NovaBay Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NYSE American: NBY) (“NovaBay” or the “Company”) announces that it has regained compliance with the NYSE American’s continued listing standards.

As previously disclosed, the NYSE American notified the Company on April 18, 2024 and May 28, 2024 that it was not in compliance with the continued listing standards of the NYSE American Company Guide. Specifically, the notifications indicated that the Company was not in compliance with Sections 1003(a)(i), 1003(a)(ii) and 1003(a)(iii) of the Company guide, requiring a listed company to have stockholders’ equity of at least $6 million.

Following the issuance and sale of pre-funded warrants to purchase an aggregate of 5,405,406 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share to certain investors for aggregate net proceeds of approximately $6.0 million and the issuance and sale an aggregate of 268,750 shares of Series E non-voting convertible preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share for aggregate net proceeds of approximately $2.15 million, the Company believes it currently has stockholders’ equity in excess of the $6 million minimum requirement.

The NYSE American formally notified NovaBay in a letter dated October 20, 2025, confirming that the Company had successfully addressed and resolved all deficiencies related to Sections 1003(a)(i), (ii), and (iii) of the NYSE American Company Guide.
