Item3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
On January 15, 2026, DT Cloud Star Acquisition Corporation (the “Company”) received a letter (the “Deficiency Letter”) from the Listing Qualifications Staff of The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that based on its Market Value of Listed Securities (“MVLS”) for the period from November 21, 2025 to January 6, 2026, the Company no longer meets the continued listing requirement of Nasdaq under Nasdaq Listing Rules 5450(b)(2)(A), to maintain a minimum MVLS of $50,0000,000.
Nasdaq has provided the Company with a compliance period of 180 calendar days, or until July 14, 2026, in which to regain compliance with Nasdaq continued listing requirement. Nasdaq will provide written confirmation of compliance to the Company and close this matter if the Company’s MVLS closes at $50,000,000 or more for a minimum of ten consecutive business days during this compliance period. In the event the Company does not regain compliance prior to the expiration of the compliance period, it will receive written notification that its securities are subject to delisting, in which situation the Company may appeal the delisting determination to a Hearings Panel. The Company may also consider applying for a transfer to The Nasdaq Capital Market (the “Capital Market”).
The Company is currently evaluating options to regain compliance and intends to timely regain compliance with Nasdaq’s continued listing requirement. Although the Company will use all reasonable efforts to achieve compliance with Rule 5450(b)(2)(A), there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to regain compliance with that rule or will otherwise be in compliance with other Nasdaq continued listing requirement.
