Check-Cap Ltd. (NASDAQ: MBAI) surged 21.52% in after-hours trading following confirmation that it has regained Nasdaq compliance with minimum shareholders’ equity requirements, clearing a critical regulatory hurdle for its previously approved merger with MBody AI. The merger, which received 98% shareholder approval in November 2025, is now positioned to proceed toward completion, transforming Check-Cap into a Nasdaq-listed embodied artificial intelligence leader. MBody AI’s technology, already deployed at Fortune 500 clients, is expected to drive growth as the combined entity targets the expanding embodied AI sector. The Nasdaq compliance announcement, coupled with strong shareholder support and the strategic shift into high-growth AI, fueled investor optimism, reflected in the sharp post-market rally.
