Rhea-AI Summary
Captivision (NASDAQ: CAPT) received extensions from a Nasdaq Hearings Panel to regain compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1): demonstrate compliance for 2024 audited financials by March 31, 2026 and file first half 2025 interim results by April 17, 2026.

Recent news often produced aligned price moves, with acquisition updates showing one positive and one negative reaction.
Over the past few months, Captivision has combined Nasdaq compliance work with a strategic pivot toward U.S. mining. In November 2025, it secured a Nasdaq filing extension and later received deficiency notices on bid price and MVLS. Management changes and a broader strategic review followed. In December 2025, the company announced an LOI to acquire Montana Tunnels Mining with a stated valuation gap and then engaged Hard Rock Consulting to validate reserves, all supporting the planned Montana Gold Inc. transformation referenced in today’s release.
Market Pulse Summary
The stock surged +11.3% in the session following this news. A strong positive reaction aligns with the stock’s history of sharp moves around compliance and acquisition milestones, as seen with prior Nasdaq extensions and the Montana Tunnels LOI. Investors have previously responded to clarity on listing status and the planned transition to Montana Gold Inc. However, execution risk on audit completion, multiple Nasdaq deadlines, and closing conditions for the acquisition could challenge the durability of any large move if progress falters.

MIAMI, Jan. 07, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Captivision Inc. (“Captivision” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: CAPT), today announced that it has been informed that the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “Panel”) has granted the Company's request to extend the deadline for regaining compliance with the Nasdaq Listing Rules, subject to certain conditions related to the Company's ongoing efforts to regain compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) (the “Periodic Filing Rule”). Pursuant to the Panel's decision, the Company must demonstrate compliance with the Periodic Filing Rule on or before March 31, 2026, with respect to 2024 fiscal year audited financial results, and April 17, 2026, with respect to reporting first half 2025 financial results (the “Extension Periods”).
The Company today also announced that it received a letter on January 2, 2025, from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) stating that the Company is not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(2) because it has not yet filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission its Form 6-K with interim financial statements for the period ended June 30, 2025 (first half 2025 results), for which the Panel already granted an extension to April 17, 2026, as discussed above. Nasdaq’s letter provided formal notice of the deficiency and this announcement is made in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(b), which requires prompt disclosure of receipt of a deficiency notification. Given the receipt of the extension, the latest notice has no current effect on the listing or trading of the Company’s securities on the Nasdaq Stock Market.
The Company previously successfully addressed other Nasdaq listing requirements and has entered into a letter of intent to acquire Montana Goldfields subsidiary Montana Tunnels Mining Inc. as previously announced. The planned transformative acquisition will reposition Captivision as a diversified gold mining and related services company, renamed Montana Gold Inc. and will begin trading on Nasdaq under the ticker symbol “MGI” upon completion of the acquisition. MGI will be a Nasdaq-listed, diversified gold mining company with significant proven reserves across precious metals and potential rare earths elements. In addition to the U.S. headquarters, assets and operations, the Company will be differentiated by established infrastructure and production, seasoned management and public company governance, and access to capital. The Company will seek to capitalize on growing demand for responsibly sourced mining assets and heightened focus on domestic supply chain security.
