Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a ContinuedListing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
On March 19, 2025, Goldenstone Acquisition Limited (the “Company”) received a notice from the staff of the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) stating that as the Company had not completed an initial business combination within 36 months of the effective date of its registration statement in connection with its initial public offering, it was not in compliance with Nasdaq IM 5101-2 and was therefore subject to delisting. The Company has until March 26, 2025 to request a hearing before the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “Panel”). If the Company does not request a hearing before the Panel by that date, trading in its securities will be suspended at the opening of business on March 26, 2025 and a Form 25 NSE will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) removing the securities from listing and registration on The Nasdaq Stock Market. In the event the Company’s securities are delisted from Nasdaq, its securities are expected to trade over-the-counter. In such an event, the Company intends to apply to list on Nasdaq in connection with the closing of its pending business combination.
