New York—November 18, 2025/PRNewswire/ -- Carver Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) (Nasdaq: CARV), the holding company for
Carver Federal Savings Bank, today announced its voluntary decision to deregister its common stock with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and delist its common stock from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) to the OTCQX Market.
The Company has notified Nasdaq of its intent to voluntarily delist and withdraw the registration of its common stock with the SEC. The
Company intends to file a Form 25 (Notification of Removal from Listing) with the SEC on or about November 28, 2025 and expects the last trading day on Nasdaq will be on or about December 5, 2025. Following delisting from Nasdaq, the Company expects its common stock will be quoted on the OTCQX Market beginning on or about December 8, 2025, under the symbol “CARV”.

interests of the Company and its stockholders. Among other reasons, it will facilitate the Company’s ability to execute our strategic plan and also reduce our expenses. The Company’s financial and other metrics fit in well as an OTC traded company,
