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

 

On April 16, 2026, the Company received a notice (the “Notice”) from the Listing Qualifications Department (the “Staff”) of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) that the Company is not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) as a result of its failure to timely file its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 (the “Form 10-K”) with the SEC.

 

The Staff informed the Company in the Notice that, under Nasdaq rules, the Company has 60 calendar days to submit a plan to regain compliance, and if the Staff accepts such plan, they can grant an exception of up to 180 calendar days from the Form 10-K’s due date (or until October 12, 2026) to regain compliance. In determining whether to accept our plan, Nasdaq will consider such things as the likelihood that the filing of the Form 10-K, 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 late filing of the Form 10-K, other corporate events that may occur within its review period, the Company’s overall financial condition and its public disclosures. Any subsequent periodic filing that is due within such 180-day exception period must be filed no later than the end of the period.

 

As previously reported in the Company’s Notification of Late Filing on Form 12b-25/A filed with the SEC on April 1, 2026 (the “Form 12b-25”), the Company was unable to file the Form 10-K within the prescribed period because the Company requires additional time to prepare and review its financial statements to ensure adequate disclosure of the financial information required to be included in the Form 10-K. Subsequent to filing the Form 12b-25, the Company continued to dedicate significant resources to the completion of the Form 10-K but was unable to file the Form 10-K by April 15, 2026, the end of the extension period provided by the Form 12b-25. The Company requires additional time to complete and file the Form 10-K.

 

The Notice from Nasdaq has no immediate effect on the listing of the Company’s common stock and its common stock will continue to be listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “LRHC”. The Company intends to take the necessary steps to regain compliance with Nasdaq’s listing rules as soon as practicable and currently expects to file the Form 10-K within the 60-day period granted by Nasdaq in the Notice (which would eliminate the need for the Company to submit a formal plan to regain compliance) and/or submit a plan of compliance with Nasdaq. However, there can be no assurance that the Form 10-K will be filed within such period, a plan of compliance will be submitted within such period, the Staff will grant the Company an exception of up to 180 calendar days from the Form 10-K’s due date, or that the Company will be able meet the continued listing requirements during any compliance period that may be granted by Nasdaq.

 

As required under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(b), the Company issued a press release on April 22, 2026, announcing that it had received the Notice. A copy of this press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 8-K.
