News Explained

Singapore, Sept. 26, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Platinum Analytics Cayman Limited (the “Company” or “PLTS”), a software developer specializing in the provision of FX trading software development solutions, data analytics solutions and technology development solutions to financial institutions with a strategic focus on serving Asia and other emergent markets, today announced that on September 21, 2026, it received a notice from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “Panel”) had denied the Company’s request to reinstate trading on Nasdaq and determined to delist the Company’s securities (the “Panel Decision”).
As previously disclosed, the Company received a Staff Delisting Determination from Nasdaq’s Listing Qualifications Department pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule IM-5101-4. The Company appealed that determination by requesting a hearing before the Panel pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5815. Following a hearing held on August 18, 2026, the Panel affirmed Nasdaq Staff’s determination to delist the Company’s securities.
The Panel based its decision principally on trading activity indicative of potential manipulation and the Company’s failure to demonstrate sufficient liquidity to support a fair and orderly market. However, the Panel was unpersuaded by Staff’s arguments concerning the Company’s professional advisors, finding that their prior involvement with other companies that had experienced trading halts, anomalous trading or FINRA enforcement matters did not, standing alone, constitute valid grounds for delisting. The Panel also found that the residence of the Company’s chief executive officer in Singapore did not support delisting. Trading in the Company’s securities was suspended at the opening of trading on September 23, 2026.
The Company intends to request that the Nasdaq Listing and Hearing Review Council review the Panel Decision pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5820. A request for review by the Listing and Hearing Review Council will not stay the suspension of trading in, or the delisting of, the Company’s securities. There can be no assurance that the Company’s request for review will be successful or that trading in the Company’s securities will resume on Nasdaq.
