Rhea-AI Summary

X3 Holdings (Nasdaq: XTKG) disclosed receipt of a Nasdaq determination to delist its securities after the bid price closed below $1 for 32 consecutive business days.

Because the company completed a one-for-six reverse split on December 30, 2025, Nasdaq found XTKG ineligible for the standard 180-day cure period and determined to delist. The company has requested a hearing to seek relief and stay suspension while exploring options, but recovery of compliance is not assured.

Analysis

The stock dropped -31.1% in the session following this news. A negative reaction despite prior weakness fits the pattern seen after earlier announcements, where news on AI deployments and a 1‑for‑6 consolidation triggered drops of 15.69% and 15.43%. The explicit Nasdaq determination to delist XTKG from the Capital Market, absent a successful appeal, adds a structural risk on top of an already depressed price near 0.1727 and a -98.94% gap to the 16.32 52‑week high. Investors have previously treated corporate actions and updates as reasons to sell rather than stabilize the stock.

Pattern Detected

Recent XTKG news, including AI deployment progress and a 1-for-6 share consolidation, was followed by sharp declines of -15.69% and -15.43%, suggesting a pattern of negative price reactions even to operational or structural updates. The current Nasdaq delisting determination fits into an already weak sentiment backdrop.

Recent Company History

Over the last few months, XTKG combined strategic developments with significant capital and listing actions. On Dec 26, 2025, it announced a 1-for-6 share consolidation and capital reduction, after which the stock fell 15.43%. On Feb 12, 2026, it highlighted agentic AI deployments for a major smartphone manufacturer and an accounting firm, yet shares declined 15.69%. Today’s Nasdaq delisting notice arrives after these double‑digit drops and continues an adverse trajectory around corporate updates.

Key Terms

reverse stock split, form 25-nse, nasdaq hearings panel

3 terms

reverse stock split financial

"the Company effected a one-for-six reverse stock split on December 30, 2025"

A reverse stock split reduces a company's number of outstanding shares while raising the price per share proportionally, so the total value of each investor's holding is unchanged; a 1-for-10 split turns 100 shares worth $1 each into 10 shares worth $10 each. Companies often do this to regain compliance with an exchange's minimum price rule or to attract investors who avoid very low-priced stocks.

form 25-nse regulatory

"and a Form 25-NSE will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission"

Form 25‑NSE is an official filing used to notify the stock exchange that a company’s securities are being removed from trading on that exchange, similar to handing in a key when a shop closes. Investors care because removal ends public trading on that venue, often cutting liquidity and making it harder to buy or sell shares, which can affect a stock’s price and how quickly investors can access cash or exit positions.

nasdaq hearings panel regulatory

"submitted a request for a hearing before the Nasdaq Hearings Panel as the next step"

A Nasdaq hearings panel is a group of experts that reviews cases when a company's stock listing is at risk of being removed from the exchange. They evaluate whether the company has met certain standards and determine if it can keep trading on Nasdaq. This process matters to investors because it can affect a company's ability to raise money and maintain credibility in the market.

SINGAPORE, Feb. 13, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- X3 Holdings Co., Ltd. (Nasdaq: XTKG) (the "Company" or "XTKG") today announced that on February 10, 2026, the Company has received a determination letter (the "Letter") from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (the "Nasdaq") regarding a failure to meet Nasdaq's minimum bid price requirements. The Letter notified that the bid price of the Company's listed securities has closed at less than $1 per share over the previous 32 consecutive business days, and as a result, not comply with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the "Rule"). The Company would be afforded a 180-calendar day period to demonstrate compliance with the Rule. However, due to the fact that the Company effected a one-for-six reverse stock split on December 30, 2025, pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A)(iv), the Company is not eligible for any compliance period specified in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A). As a result, the Letter states that Nasdaq has determined to delist the Company's securities from The Nasdaq Capital Market.

Unless the Company requests an appeal of this determination by February 17, 2026, the Company's securities will be scheduled for delisting from The Nasdaq Capital Market and will be suspended at the opening of business on February 19, 2026, and a Form 25-NSE will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which will remove the Company's securities from listing and registration on The Nasdaq Stock Market.

The Company has submitted a request for a hearing before the Nasdaq Hearings Panel as the next step in the process in seeking an extension to satisfy the minimum bid price requirement set forth in the Rule for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market. The request for a hearing would stay the suspension of the Company's securities and the filing of the Form 25-NSE pending the Panel's decision. The Company is considering all potential options available to it to regain compliance with the aforementioned rules. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will, in fact, move to appeal the determination, that any appeal would be successful, or that the Company will ultimately be able to regain compliance with the applicable Nasdaq listing requirements.

FAQ

Why did Nasdaq send a delisting notice to X3 Holdings (XTKG) on February 10, 2026?

Because the bid price closed below $1 for 32 consecutive business days, Nasdaq determined delisting was appropriate. According to the company, the one-for-six reverse split on December 30, 2025 made XTKG ineligible for the usual 180-day cure period.

What immediate steps did X3 Holdings (XTKG) take after receiving the Nasdaq delisting notice?

X3 Holdings requested a hearing before the Nasdaq Hearings Panel to stay suspension and the Form 25-NSE filing. According to the company, the hearing request pauses suspension while the Panel decides on any extension or appeal.

Will X3 Holdings (XTKG) be suspended from Nasdaq on February 19, 2026?

Suspension is scheduled at the opening of business on February 19, 2026 unless the company appeals by February 17, 2026. According to the company, filing for a hearing would stay the suspension pending the Panel's decision.

Does the reverse stock split affect X3 Holdings (XTKG) eligibility for Nasdaq's cure period?

Yes. Because the company effected a one-for-six reverse split on December 30, 2025, Nasdaq deemed XTKG ineligible for the 180-calendar day compliance period. According to the company, that ineligibility led to Nasdaq's delisting determination.

How likely is X3 Holdings (XTKG) to regain compliance with Nasdaq listing rules?

There is no assurance the company will regain compliance or that an appeal will succeed. According to the company, it is considering all potential options but cannot guarantee a successful outcome or relisting.
