Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.
On August 3, 2026, AEON Biopharma, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing that the Company has regained compliance with the continued listing standards of NYSE American LLC (“NYSE American”). A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
The information furnished in this Item 7.01 of this Current Report (including Exhibit 99.1) 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 of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, regardless of any general incorporation language in such filing, unless expressly incorporated by specific reference in such a filing.
Item 8.01. Other Events.
On August 3, 2026, the Company received a letter from NYSE Regulation confirming that the Company has regained compliance with the continued listing standards of NYSE American.
The letter stated that the Company is in compliance with all of the NYSE American continued listing standards set forth in Part 10 of the NYSE American Company Guide (the “Company Guide”). Specifically, the Company resolved the previously identified deficiencies under Sections 1003(a)(i) and 1003(a)(ii) of the Company Guide. As a result, the Company expects that the “below compliance” (“.BC”) indicator will be removed from the Company’s trading symbol for its Class A common stock and the Company will be removed from NYSE American’s list of noncompliant issuers on its website. The Company will remain subject to NYSE American’s continued listing standards and, if the Company is again determined to be below any such standard, it could be subject to further NYSE American action.
