Sequans Receives Notice of Non-Compliance with NYSE Trading Share Price and Market Capitalization Listing Rules

Paris, France--(Newsfile Corp. - June 23, 2025) - Sequans Communications S.A. (NYSE:SQNS) ("Sequans") (the "Company"), a leading developer and provider of 5G/4G solutions for IoT devices, today announced that on June 5, 2025 it received a notice (the "Notice") from the New York Stock Exchange (the "NYSE") informing the Company that it is no longer in compliance with Section 802.01B of the NYSE Listed Company Manual.

The Company was notified by the NYSE that it was not in compliance with Section 802.01B (the "Market Cap Deficiency") because it had an average global market capitalization over a consecutive 30 trading-day period below $50,000,000 and, at the same time, stockholders' equity less than $50,000,000. The Notice does not result in the immediate delisting of the Company's ADSs from the NYSE. The Company has notified the NYSE that it intends to cure the Market Cap Deficiency and return to compliance with the NYSE's continued listing standard.

In accordance with applicable NYSE procedures, the Company has 90 days from receipt of the Notice to submit a business plan advising the NYSE of the definitive action(s) the Company has taken, or is taking, that would bring it into compliance with continued listing standards within 9 months of receipt of the Notice (the "Market Cap Cure Period"). The NYSE will review the plan and, within 45 days of its receipt, determine whether the Company has made a reasonable demonstration of an ability to conform to the relevant standards in the 9-month period. If the NYSE accepts the plan, the Company's ADSs will continue to be listed and traded on the NYSE during the 9-month period, subject to the Company's compliance with the other continued listing standards of the NYSE and continued periodic review by the NYSE of the Company's progress with respect to its plan. Sequans is currently evaluating its available options and developing a plan to regain compliance with the minimum global market capitalization requirement.

The Company's ADSs will continue to be listed and trade on the NYSE during the Market Cap Cure Period, subject to the Company's compliance with other NYSE continued listing standards.
