Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
As previously disclosed, on February 4, 2026, Actelis Networks, Inc. (the “Company”) received a written notice (the “Notice”) from the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) indicating that the Nasdaq staff (the “Staff”) had determined to delist the Company’s securities from The Nasdaq Capital Market. As disclosed in the Notice, the Staff determined that the Company’s common stock failed to maintain a minimum bid price of $1.00 per share for 30 consecutive business days, in violation of Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Bid Price Rule”). While companies are typically afforded a 180-calendar-day compliance period to comply with the Nasdaq Listing Rule, the Staff concluded that the Company is not eligible for the compliance period pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A)(iv) due to the fact that the Company effected a reverse stock split within the prior one-year period, specifically a 1-for-10 reverse stock split on November 18, 2025, and therefore was subject to immediate delisting.
The Company requested an appeal hearing, which stayed the suspension and delisting action. At the appeal hearing, the Company presented to the Nasdaq Hearings Panel its plan to regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule.
On April 8, 2026, Nasdaq delivered a letter to the Company confirming to the Company that it had denied the Company’s request for continued listing and therefore that trading of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”), would be suspended at the open of trading on April 10, 2026.
The Company expects and plans for its shares of Common Stock to be quoted by the OTC Markets Group, Inc. (“OTC”) upon being suspended from trading on Nasdaq and intends to submit an application to have its securities traded on the OTCQB Venture Market (“OTCQB”) of OTC. While the Company intends to have its Common Stock quoted on the OTCQB, the Company’s Common Stock may temporarily trade on OTC Pink until the transfer to OTCQB is finalized. There can be no assurance that trading in the Company’s securities will commence or continue on the OTC or other market or that such trading will occur at volumes or prices to facilitate efficient market activities.
The Company will continue to remain a reporting company under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the transition to the OTC is not expected to affect the Company’s business operations. The Company will make additional disclosures relating to post-suspension trading as that information becomes available.
Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.
On April 9, 2026, the Company issued a press release titled “Actelis Networks to Transition Trading to OTC Market Following Nasdaq Panel Decision”. A copy of the press release is included as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
The press release and the information set forth therein shall not be deemed to be filed for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise be subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed to be incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act.
Cautionary Statement Concerning Forward-Looking Statements
This Current Report contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and other securities laws. Words such as “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “seeks,” “estimates” and similar expressions or variations of such words are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are not historical facts, and are based upon management’s current expectations, beliefs and projections, many of which, by their nature, are inherently uncertain. Such expectations, beliefs and projections are expressed in good faith. Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and assumptions that, while considered reasonable are inherently uncertain. New risks and uncertainties may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible to predict all risks and uncertainties. There can be no assurance that management’s expectations, beliefs and projections will be achieved, and actual results may differ materially from what is expressed in or indicated by the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual performance or results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements. These and other important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated by the forward-looking statements made in this Current Report. Factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations include, but are not limited to, various factors beyond management’s control including general economic conditions; the Company’s ability to resume the quoting and trading of its common stock on the OTC market and the impact of the Nasdaq delisting on the Company’s business operations; the possibility that Actelis may be adversely affected by other economic, business, and/or competitive factors and other risks and uncertainties indicated from time to time. Any such forward-looking statements represent management’s estimates as of the date of this Current Report. While the Company may elect to update such forward-looking statements at some point in the future, unless required by law, it disclaims any obligation to do so, even if subsequent events cause its views to change. Thus, no one should assume that the Company’s silence over time means that actual events are bearing out as expressed or implied in such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing the Company’s views as of any date subsequent to the date of this Current Report. More detailed information about the Company and the risk factors that may affect the realization of forward-looking statements is set forth in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), including the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K and its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. Investors and security holders are urged to read these documents free of charge on the SEC’s web site at http://www.sec.gov.
