Item 3.01. Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
On December 2, 2024, FreightCar America, Inc. (the “Company”) received a notification letter from the Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) after the Company discovered and self-reported that between March 2024 and October 2024, the Company did not fully comply with the compensation committee charter requirements set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5605(d)(1)(B) (the “Rule”).
The notification letter stated that the Company was not in compliance with the Rule, which requires the charter of the compensation committee of the board of directors to specify the compensation committee’s responsibility for determining, or recommending to the board of directors for determination, the compensation of the chief executive officer and all other Executive Officers of the company. In March 2024, the Company’s Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) charter (the “Charter”) was amended to specify the Committee’s responsibility for determining the compensation of only Named Executive Officers.
On October 30, 2024, the Committee approved amendments to the Charter to specify that the Committee annually reviews and approves “compensation for each Executive Officer (as defined in Rule 16a-1(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) of the Company,” in compliance with the Rule. In the notification letter, Nasdaq staff determined that, subject to the Company complying with the disclosure requirements intended to be met by the filing of this Current Report on Form 8-K, the Company has regained compliance with the Rule.
SIGNATURE
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
