Item 8.01.           Other Events.

As previously reported, on April 11, 2016, Alliqua BioMedical, Inc. (the “Company”) received a letter from the Listing Qualifications Department of the Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) indicating that, based upon the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock for the last 30 consecutive business days, the Company did not meet the minimum bid price of $1.00 per share required for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). The letter also indicated that the Company had a compliance period of 180 calendar days, or until October 10, 2016, in which to regain compliance pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A). The letter further provided that if, at any time during the 180-day period, the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock was at least $1.00 for a minimum of ten consecutive business days, Nasdaq would provide the Company with written confirmation that it had achieved compliance with the minimum bid price requirement.

On June 2, 2016, the Company received a letter from Nasdaq notifying the Company that for the last 10 consecutive business days, from May 18, 2016 to June 1, 2016, the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock has been at $1.00 per share or greater and, therefore, the Company has regained compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) and this matter is now closed.
