Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
On March 9, 2026, Sadot Group Inc. (the “Company”) received a letter (the “Letter”) from the Listing Qualifications Staff (the “Staff”) of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that it had failed to comply with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5640 (the “Voting Rights Rule”), but that the Company had subsequently regained compliance with the Voting Rights Rule and that the matter is now closed.
As described in the Letter, on February 11, 2026, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Original SPA”) pursuant to which the Company issued 10,000 shares of its newly designated Series A Preferred Stock (the “Preferred Stock”). Under the terms of the Certificate of Designation for the Preferred Stock (the “Certificate”), the Preferred Stock is non-convertible but votes on an as-if-converted basis, with each share initially carrying 14.5255 votes, assuming an effective conversion price of $1.00. Nasdaq determined that this assumed conversion price represented a discount to the market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of the binding agreement, based on trading prices on the days preceding the Original SPA. As a result, Nasdaq concluded that the issuance of the Preferred Stock constituted the issuance of a “super-voting stock” in violation of the Voting Rights Rule, which prohibits the disparate reduction or restriction of the voting rights of existing shareholders of publicly traded common stock through any corporate action or issuance, including the issuance of super-voting stock.
Subsequently, on March 2, 2026, the Company entered into a First Amendment to the Stock Purchase Agreement with Stanley Hills, LLC (the “Amendment”), which reduced the voting rights per share of Preferred Stock to 5.1596 votes. The Company disclosed the Amendment in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 6, 2026.
Based on the Company’s corrective actions through the Amendment and its subsequent disclosures, Nasdaq determined that the Original SPA violated the Voting Rights Rule, but that the Company has now regained compliance with Nasdaq’s rules. Subject to the Company’s compliance with the disclosure requirements set forth in the Letter, Nasdaq has closed the matter.
