Item 3.01. Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
On April 22, 2025, the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) notified Solo Brands, Inc. (the “Company”), and publicly announced, that it had determined to commence proceedings to delist the Company’s Class A common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Class A Common Stock”), as a result of the Company’s non-compliance with Rule 802.01D of the NYSE Listed Company Manual due to the Class A Common Stock trading at “abnormally low price” levels and that trading in the Class A Common Stock was suspended immediately.
The NYSE will apply to the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) to delist the Class A Common Stock upon completion of all applicable procedures.
The Company expects that its Class A Common Stock will be quoted for trading on the OTC Pink Market. The OTC Pink Market is a significantly more limited market than the NYSE, and quotation on the OTC Pink Market will likely result in a less liquid market for existing and potential holders of the Class A Common Stock and could further depress the trading price of the Class A Common Stock. The Company can provide no assurance that the Class A Common Stock will trade or continue to trade on this market, whether broker-dealers will provide public quotes of the Class A Common Stock on this market, or whether the trading volume of the Class A Common Stock will be sufficient to provide for an efficient trading market.
The transition to the OTC Pink Market will not affect the Company’s business operations, its relationships with partners, suppliers or employees or its SEC reporting obligations.
