| Item 3.01 | Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing. |
On May 22, 2025, Cycurion, Inc. (the “Company”) received written notice (the “Nasdaq Letter”) from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) indicating that the Company is delinquent in filing its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2025 (the “Form 10-Q”), which may serve as an additional basis for the delisting of the Company’s securities from Nasdaq. The Company previously filed a Form 12b-25 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on May 15, 2025, disclosing that it was unable to file the Form 10-Q (the “Delinquent Filing”) within the prescribed time period without unreasonable effort or expense.
The Nasdaq Letter provided that under Nasdaq rules, the Company now has 60 calendar days to submit a plan to regain compliance with respect to the Delinquent Filing. If Nasdaq accepts our plan, Nasdaq can grant an exception of up to 180 calendar days from the Delinquent Filing’s due date, or until November 17, 2025, to regain compliance. In determining whether to accept our plan, Nasdaq will consider such things as the likelihood that the Delinquent Filing, along with any subsequent periodic filing that will be due, can be made within the 180 day period, the Company’s past compliance history, the reasons for the Delinquent Filing, other corporate events that may occur within its review period, the Company’s overall financial condition and its public disclosures.
The Company is working diligently to compile the information required to be included in the Form 10-Q and expects to file within the 60-day period described above, which would eliminate the need for the Company to submit a formal plan to regain compliance. As required under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(b), the Company issued a press release on May 29, 2025, announcing that it had received the Nasdaq Letter. A copy of this press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 8-K.
Forward-Looking Statements
This Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements, including statements about the financial condition, results of operations, earnings outlook and prospects of the Company. In addition, any statements that refer to projections, forecasts or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions, are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are typically identified by words such as “plan,” “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “outlook,” “estimate,” “forecast,” “project,” “continue,” “could,” “may,” “might,” “possible,” “potential,” “predict,” “should,” “would” and other similar words and expressions, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking.
The forward-looking statements are based on the current expectations of the Company’s management and are inherently subject to uncertainties and changes in circumstances and their potential effects and speak only as of the date of such statement. There can be no assurance that future developments will be those that have been anticipated. These forward-looking statements involve a number of risks, uncertainties or other assumptions that may cause actual results or performance to be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. These factors include, without limitation, our ability to respond in a timely and satisfactory matter to the inquiries by Nasdaq, our ability to regain compliance with the Listing Rule and our ability to become current with our reports with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. For additional information about factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements, please refer to our filings with the SEC. Forward-looking statements represent management’s current expectations and are inherently uncertain. Except to the extent required by applicable law, we do not undertake any obligation to update or revise forward-looking statements made by us to reflect subsequent events or circumstances.

Exhibit 99.1
Cycurion, Inc. received expected notification of deficiency from Nasdaq related to delayed filing of quarterly report on Form 10-Q
McLean, VA – May 29, 2025 – Cycurion, Inc. (Nasdaq: CYCU) (“Cycurion” or the “Company”), a trusted leader in IT cybersecurity solutions and AI, today announced that it received an expected deficiency notification letter from the Listing Qualifications Staff of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) on May 22, 2025 (the “Notice”). The Notice indicated that the Company was not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) (the “Listing Rule”) as a result of its failure to timely file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2025 (the “Form 10-Q”), as described more fully in the Company’s Form NT 10-Q Notification of Late Filing (the “Form NT 10-Q”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on May 15, 2025. The Listing Rule requires Nasdaq-listed companies to timely file all required periodic reports with the SEC.
The Notice has no immediate effect on the listing or trading of the Company’s common stock on the Nasdaq Global Select Market.
In accordance with Nasdaq’s listing rules, the Company has 60 calendar days after the Notice to submit a plan to regain compliance with the Listing Rule. Pursuant to the Notice, following receipt of such plan, Nasdaq may grant an extension of up to 180 calendar days from the Form 10-Q’s due date, or until November 17, 2025, for the Company to regain compliance. The Company intends to take the necessary steps to regain compliance with Nasdaq’s listing rules as soon as practicable.
As previously disclosed, the filing of the Form 10-Q was delayed due to the matters described in the Form NT 10-Q. As of today, the assessment described in the Form NT 10-Q is ongoing and all parties continue to work diligently to complete the assessment and to file the Form 10-Q as soon as practicable.
