form 10-q regulatory
A Form 10-Q is a detailed report that publicly traded companies are required to file with regulators three times a year, providing an update on their financial health and business activities. It is important for investors because it offers timely insights into a company's performance, helping them make informed decisions about buying or selling stocks. Think of it as a regular check-up report that shows how well a company is doing.
nasdaq listing rule 5250(c)(1) regulatory
Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) requires companies listed on the Nasdaq stock exchange to promptly notify the exchange if their stock price falls below a certain minimum level, known as the "initial listing standards." This rule helps ensure that investors are aware of significant declines in a company's stock value, which could signal financial trouble or increased risk. Essentially, it helps maintain transparency and protect investors by keeping them informed about important changes in a company's stock performance.
securities and exchange commission regulatory
A national government agency that enforces rules for buying, selling and disclosing information about stocks and other investments, acting like a referee and scorekeeper for financial markets. It requires companies to share clear, regular financial and business information and investigates fraud or rule-breaking, which matters to investors because those rules and disclosures help ensure fair prices, reduce hidden risks and make it easier to compare investment choices.
nasdaq regulatory
The Nasdaq is a stock exchange where many companies' shares are bought and sold, functioning much like a marketplace for investments. It matters to investors because it provides a platform to buy and sell ownership stakes in companies, helping them track the value of those companies and make informed decisions.

CHARLOTTE, N.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Driven Brands Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: DRVN) (“Driven Brands” or the “Company”) today announced that it received a notice (the “Notice”) from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) on June 1, 2026, indicating that the Company is not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) (the “Listing Rule”) due to the delayed filing of its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 28, 2026 (the “2026 Form 10-Q”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The Listing Rule requires companies with securities listed on Nasdaq to timely file all required periodic reports with the SEC.

The 2026 Form 10-Q filing delay is related to the previously announced restatement of the Company’s prior period financial statements and the associated delay in filing its 2025 Form 10-K, which was filed on May 19, 2026.

The Notice from Nasdaq is standard practice in the event of a delayed periodic financial report filing and has no immediate effect on the listing or trading of the Company’s common stock on Nasdaq.

In accordance with Nasdaq’s listing rules, the Company has 60 calendar days after the Notice, or until July 31, 2026, to submit a plan of compliance to Nasdaq addressing how the Company intends to regain compliance with the Listing Rule. Pursuant to the Notice, Nasdaq has the discretion to grant the Company up to 180 calendar days from the 2026 Form 10-Q’s due date, or November 25, 2026, for the Company to regain compliance with the Listing Rule.

The Company is working to complete its financial reporting and currently expects to file the 2026 Form 10-Q as soon as practicable.
