The shares are now trading below $1, putting them at risk for a potential delisting. The company’s market capitalization stands at about $30 million - a far cry from its peak of almost $1.9 billion after its 2017 initial public offering. The shares rose as much as 14% before paring gains. Blue Apron expects to stay compliant through at least the first quarter of 2023 and remains in talks with its financial advisers to evaluate financing and other alternatives. The savings will help the company strengthen its balance sheet to maintain compliance with its minimum liquidity covenant of $25 million. The company had 1,694 full-time workers as of June 30. Blue Apron said it will incur about $1.2 million in employee-related expenses from the job cuts. The company expects to slash spending by as much as $50 million in 2023 and “create a more nimble, focused organization and to better align internal resources with strategic priorities,” according to a statement Thursday.
