Item 8.01 Other Events.
As previously disclosed, on February 4, 2026, Mangoceuticals, Inc. (the “Company”) received a deficiency notification letter from the Listing Qualifications Staff (the “Staff”) of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) indicating that the Company was not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) because the bid price of the Company’s common stock had closed below $1.00 per share for the previous 30 consecutive business days.
In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company was provided an initial compliance period of 180 calendar days, or until August 3, 2026, to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement (the “Bid Price Requirement”).
On August 4, 2026, the Company received a letter (the “Second Notice”) from Nasdaq advising that the Staff has determined that the Company is eligible for an additional 180 calendar day compliance period, or until February 1, 2027 (the “Second Compliance Period”), to regain compliance. According to the Second Notice, the Staff’s determination was based on (i) the Company meeting the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other applicable requirements for initial listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market, with the exception of the Bid Price Requirement, and (ii) the Company’s written notice of its intention to cure the deficiency during the Second Compliance Period by effecting a reverse stock split, if necessary.
The Second Notice has no effect on the listing or trading of the Company’s common stock at this time. The Company intends to actively monitor the closing bid price of its common stock and will take all necessary actions to resolve this listing deficiency.
On August 4, 2026, the Company issued a press release announcing the receipt of the Second Notice and commenting on the Company’s recently announced entrance into a business combination agreement with Nuclea Energy Inc. A copy of the press release is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
