No I don't think so....
For no reason whatsoever tsig could do a little run to the 40 to 50 pre-split range. But assuming that doesn't happen and they split at approximately these levels, will they be able to maintain that post split price let alone add value to meet nasdaq qualifying criteria?
Don't know, though another possibility is reverse merging with a listed shell, or acquiring a listed company.
Theoretically tsig could acquire a listed clothing company, for example, on the nasdaq, sell off all the clothing assets, then apply for a name and symbol change back to tsig.
Sound unreasonable? Look at the Rare Medium story. Rare Medium prior to being known as Rare Medium and listed as RRRR was known as ICC Technologies and listed as ICGN. Was ICGN another internet company? No, ICGN was an air conditioning company.

Purchasing a non tech or another distress listed company, then disposing of its remaining businesses, would be a quick work around SEC listing requirements though it does require a later name change. Purchasing a non-tech and/or distress Nasdaq listed company would also be cheaper than trying to purchase another tech company meaning less dilution to acquire a non-performing asset.
Tsig also could purchase a synergistic NAZ listed public company that would require more shares or cash spent, but could also offset such dilution if the asset were a performing one.
Anyway, what makes a reverse merger tenable regardless of post rs share price is the access to capital, which per the last press release has been increased over three fold.
Thus the whole point, is that listing can occur more than one way due to amount available and tsig's low burn rate. The rs consolidates shares to also allow for ample wiggle room without raising the authorized.
The obvious risk is that after consolidation, shares again are pissed away, rather than spent acquiring companies and personal that add to increased revenues per shares.
Whether or not this happens, I cannot project. History may or may not be a good barometer but remember the times they is a changin' and very quickly at that. Plus without knowing any terms of any of the draw downs of the $125 mill, we're all really just whistling dixie. And I don't really think any of us want to do that
