On August 20, 2026, Atlantic American Corporation (the “Company”) received a notice (the “Notice”) from The Nasdaq Stock Market
LLC (“Nasdaq”) stating that because the Company had not yet filed its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2026 (the “Form 10-Q”), and because the Company remains delinquent in filing its Annual Report on Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2025 and its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2026 (collectively with the Form 10-Q, the “Delinquent Reports”), the Company is not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1)

granted by Nasdaq with respect to filing the Form 10-Q will also be limited to October 12, 2026. If Nasdaq does not accept the Company’s plan, then the Company will have the opportunity to appeal that decision to a Nasdaq Hearings Panel.
The Notice has no immediate effect on the listing of the Company’s common stock on The Nasdaq Global Market. The Company
continues to work diligently, and is making progress, toward filing the Delinquent Reports and regaining compliance with the Rule as promptly as practicable and by October 12, 2026.
