Item3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
On April 20, 2026, the registrant (“Laser Photonics” or the “Company”) received a notice from Nasdaq Listing Qualifications department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) stating that since the Company has not yet filed its Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, it no longer complies with Nasdaq’s Listing Rules (the “Rules”), specifically Listing Rule 5250(c)(1), for continued listing. The notice from Nasdaq stated that the Company has 60 calendar days or until June 22, 2026, to submit a plan to regain compliance, and if Nasdaq accepts the Company’s plan, Nasdaq can grant an exception of up to 180 calendar days from the due date, or until October 12, 2026, to regain compliance by filing its Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 Any subsequent periodic filing that is due within the 180-day exception period must be filed no later than the end of the period.
Shortly after the Company’s receipt of this notice from Nasdaq, the Company filed its Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, that was delayed as a result of resolving accounting issues raised by the Company’s recently engaged independent registered public accounting firm. Accordingly, on April 21, 2026, Nasdaq sent a letter to the Company stating that in light of the Company filing its Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, that it now complied with Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) (the “Rule”) and that the matter was now closed.
A copy of the press release announcing this deficiency notice is attached hereto and incorporated herein to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1.
