Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
As previously reported, on September 4, 2024, APX Acquisition Corp. I (the “Company”), received a written notice from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) indicating that since the Company’s aggregate market value of its outstanding warrants was less than $1 million, the Company was no longer in compliance with the Nasdaq Global Market continued listing criteria set forth in Listing Rule 5452(b)(C) (the “Rule”), which requires the Company to maintain an aggregate market value of its outstanding warrants of at least $1 million (the “Notice”). The Company subsequently submitted a plan to regain compliance with the Rule (the “Compliance Plan”).
On October 29, 2024, the Company received written notice from the Staff (the “November Notice”), stating that the Compliance Plan was not accepted as the Company had provided insufficient evidence to demonstrate that it can effect the Compliance Plan by its 36-month expiration date of December 6, 2024, at which time the Company’s securities will be delisted from Nasdaq in accordance with IM-5101-2, irrespective of the Company’s progress or lack thereof toward regaining compliance with the Rule, and that the Staff had determined to initiate procedures to delist the Company’s warrants (and, as a result of the warrants’ inclusion therein, the Company’s units) from Nasdaq due to the Company’s non-compliance.
Pursuant to the Notice, unless the Company requests a hearing to appeal this determination by November 5, 2024, the Company’s warrants and units will be suspended at the opening of business on November 5, 2024, and a Form 25-NSE will be filed with the SEC, which will remove the Company’s warrants and units from listing and registration on Nasdaq (the “Warrant/Unit Delisting”). The Company does not intend to request a hearing. The Warrant/Unit Delisting does not affect the listing or trading of the Company’s Class A ordinary shares on the Nasdaq Global Market, other than those contained within the units.
