Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a ContinuedListing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

As previously disclosed in the Form 12b-25 filed on April 1, 2026 by Graf Global Corp., a Cayman Islands exempted company (the “Company”), the Company requires additional time to file its Annual Report on Form 10-K as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025 (the “Annual Report”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

On April 16, 2026, the Company received a notice (the “Notice”) from the NYSE Regulation staff of the NYSE American LLC (the “NYSE American”) stating that the Company is not in compliance with Section 1007 of the NYSE American Company Guide (the “Rule”) because it has not timely filed its Annual Report with the SEC. The Rule requires listed companies to timely file all required periodic financial reports with the SEC. The Notice has no immediate effect on the listing or trading of the Company’s securities. However, if the Company fails to timely regain compliance with the Rule, the Company’s securities will be subject to delisting from the NYSE American.

Under NYSE American listing standards, the Company automatically has a period of six months from the due date of the Annual Report to cure the filing delinquency by filing the Annual Report. If the Company fails to file the Annual Report within such six-month period, it can submit a request to the NYSE American to allow the Company’s securities to continue to trade on the NYSE American for up to a further six months. However, there can be no assurance that the NYSE American will accept the Company’s request or that the Company will be able to regain compliance within any extension period granted by the NYSE American. The NYSE American may commence delisting procedures at any time during the period that is available to the Company to complete the filing, if circumstances warrant.

The Company is working diligently to complete its Annual Report. The Company intends to file the Annual Report as soon as practicable to regain compliance with the Rule.

Item 7.01 Regulation FD

On April 22, 2026, the Company issued a press release announcing its receipt of the Notice. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

The information in this Item 7.01, including Exhibit 99.1, is furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to liabilities under that section, and shall not be deemed to be incorporated by reference into the filings of the Company under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, regardless of any general incorporation language in such filings.
