RCI Receives Anticipated Nasdaq Letter Related to 2Q26 10-Q
HOUSTON—May 22, 2026—On May 20, 2026, RCI Hospitality Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: RICK) received an anticipated letter from the Nasdaq Stock Market notifying the Company of its noncompliance with Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) requiring the timely filing of reports with the SEC. RCI has not yet filed its Form 10-Q for the second quarter ended March 31, 2026. Nasdaq’s letter has no immediate effect on the Company’s common stock listing.
Under Nasdaq’s rules, RCI has until July 20, 2026, to file its 10-Q or submit a plan to regain compliance. RCI intends to file its 10-Q as soon as practicable. If the Company is unable to do so, it will submit a compliance plan on or prior to July 20, 2026. If Nasdaq accepts it, the exchange may grant an exception of up to 180 calendar days from the 10-Q’s due date, or until November 16, 2026. The Company may regain compliance at any time prior to that date by filing its 10-Q and all subsequent required periodic filings that are due within that period. If Nasdaq does not accept RCI's plan, the Company can appeal that decision to a Nasdaq panel.
