Item 3.01 - Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
On January 6, 2025 System1, Inc. (the “Company”) was notified by the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) that it is not in compliance with Section 802.01C of the NYSE Listed Company Manual because the average closing price of the Company’s Class A Common Stock ("the Common Stock") was less than $1.00 over a consecutive 30 trading-day period. The notice does not result in the immediate delisting of the Company’s Common Stock from the NYSE.
The Company plans to notify the NYSE by January 21, 2025 that it intends to cure the average closing stock price deficiency and to return to compliance with the NYSE's continued listing standards. The Company can regain compliance at any time within the six-month period following receipt of the NYSE's non-compliance notice if, on the last trading day of any calendar month during the cure period, the Company has (i) a closing share price of at least $1.00 and (ii) an average closing share price of at least $1.00 over the 30 trading-day period ending on the last trading day of that month. The Company intends to consider all available alternatives to cure the stock price non-compliance. Under the NYSE’s listing rules, the price condition will be deemed cured if the price promptly exceeds $1.00 per share and the price remains above that level for at least the following 30 consecutive trading days.
The Company’s Common Stock will continue to be listed and trade on the NYSE during this period, subject to the Company’s ongoing compliance with the NYSE's other continued listing standards.
Item 7.01 - Regulation FD Disclosure
As required by Section 802.01C of the NYSE Listed Company Manual, the Company issued a press release on January 10, 2025, announcing that it had received the notice of noncompliance with the NYSE’s continued listing standard. A copy of the press release is furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1.
The information in this Item 7.01, including the information contained in Exhibit 99.1 of this Current Report on Form 8-K, is being furnished herewith and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities under that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or the Exchange Act, regardless of any general incorporation language in such filing.
