BOSTON, MA, Sept. 25, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Netcapital Inc. (Nasdaq: NCPL) (the "Company") today announced that on September 21, 2026, it received a notice from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC ("Nasdaq") stating that, because the Company has not yet filed its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended July 31, 2026, and remains delinquent in filing its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2026, the Company is not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1). That rule requires listed companies to timely file all required periodic financial reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
As previously announced on August 27, 2026, the Company received an earlier notice from Nasdaq on August 24, 2026 regarding the delinquent Form 10-K. Under that notice, the Company has until October 23, 2026 to submit a plan to regain compliance covering both delinquent reports. If Nasdaq accepts the plan, it may grant the Company an exception of up to 180 calendar days from the original due date of the Form 10-K, or until February 9, 2027, to regain compliance. If Nasdaq does not accept the plan, the Company may appeal to a Nasdaq Hearings Panel.
The notice has no immediate effect on the listing or trading of the Company's common stock, which continues to trade on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol "NCPL."
The Company intends to submit its compliance plan within the required timeframe and to file the Form 10-K and Form 10-Q as soon as practicable. There can be no assurance that Nasdaq will accept the plan or that the Company will regain compliance within any exception period granted.
