On April 16, 2026, Allied Gaming & Entertainment Inc. (the “Company”) received a deficiency letter (the “Letter”) from the Listing Qualifications Department of the Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that it is not in compliance with the periodic reporting requirements for continued listing set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) (the “Rule”) because the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 (the “Form 10-K”) was not filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission by the required due date of March 31, 2026 (or April 15, 2026 following the Form 12b-25 filed by the Company on March 31, 2026). The Letter has no immediate effect on the listing or trading of the Company’s common stock on Nasdaq.
Under Nasdaq rules, the Company now has 60 calendar days from the receipt of the Letter, or until June 15, 2026, to submit a plan to regain compliance with the Rule. The Company currently expects that it will be able to file the Form 10-K prior to such deadline. In the event the Company needs to submit a plan of compliance, and Nasdaq accepts the Company’s plan, Nasdaq may grant an exception of 180 calendar days from the Form 10-K’s due date, or until October 12, 2026, as instructed by the Letter, to regain compliance with the Rule. However, there is no assurance that the Company will be able to regain compliance with all applicable continued listing requirements of Nasdaq or that Nasdaq will accept the Company’s plan to regain compliance, if any.
The Company is working diligently to regain compliance with Rule. This Current Report on Form 8-K has no immediate effect on the listing or trading of the Company’s common stock on Nasdaq.
On April 21, 2026, the Company issued a press release in accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(b) announcing that the Company had received the Letter. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.*
