Item 3.01. Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
On August 21, 2026, BioRestorative Therapies, Inc. (the “Company”) received a delinquency notification letter (the “Notice”) from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) indicating that, as a result of the Company’s inability to timely file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2026 (the “Form 10-Q”), the Company is not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1), which requires listed companies to timely file all required periodic financial reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The Notice has no immediate effect on the listing of the Company’s common stock, which continues to trade on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “BRTX”.
As indicated in the Notice, the Company has until October 20, 2026, to submit a plan to regain compliance. If Nasdaq accepts the Company’s plan, it may grant an exception of up to 180 calendar days from the Form 10-Q’s due date, or until February 16, 2027, for the Company to regain compliance. If Nasdaq does not accept the Company’s compliance plan, the Company will have the opportunity to appeal the decision to a Nasdaq Hearings Panel.
The Company is working prudently to complete and file the Form 10-Q and submit a plan to regain compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1).
Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Current Report on Form 8-K contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and other applicable securities laws. Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding the Company’s ability to complete and file the Form 10-Q, the Company’s ability to submit a plan to regain compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1), whether Nasdaq will accept such plan, the timing and outcome of any compliance period or extension that may be granted by Nasdaq, and the Company’s ability to regain and maintain compliance with Nasdaq’s continued listing requirements. These forward-looking statements are based on the Company’s current expectations and beliefs and are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties, and assumptions that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated, including, without limitation, risks associated with the Company’s ability to complete its financial statements and related disclosures in a timely manner, the availability of internal and external resources necessary to prepare and file the Form 10-Q, Nasdaq’s acceptance or rejection of the Company’s compliance plan, the possibility that the Company’s common stock could be delisted from Nasdaq if the Company fails to regain compliance within the period prescribed by Nasdaq or any extension granted, and other risks and uncertainties described in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including its most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and subsequent filings. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise, except as required by law.
