Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Bayview Acquisition Corp reports that Nasdaq has determined its securities are subject to delisting after the company failed to regain compliance with multiple listing standards. The company has not met the Market Value of Listed Securities requirement of $50.0 million and the Market Value of Publicly Held Shares requirement of $15.0 million, and it also did not hold an annual shareholder meeting within twelve months of its fiscal year end.

Nasdaq’s staff stated that Bayview’s securities will be delisted from the Nasdaq Global Market unless the company appeals by February 26, 2026. If no appeal is made, trading is expected to be suspended at the opening on March 2, 2026 and a Form 25-NSE will remove the securities from listing and registration. Bayview intends to appeal to a Nasdaq Hearings Panel, which would temporarily stay any suspension and delisting actions, but there is no assurance the appeal will succeed.

Positive

  • None.

Negative

  • Nasdaq delisting risk: Bayview Acquisition Corp has received a Nasdaq notice that, due to failure to meet multiple market value and governance listing standards, its securities will be delisted from the Nasdaq Global Market absent a successful appeal.

Insights

Nasdaq has moved toward delisting Bayview after prolonged listing-rule noncompliance.

Nasdaq informed Bayview Acquisition Corp on February 19, 2026 that it has not regained compliance with the Market Value of Listed Securities rule requiring at least $50.0 million, nor the Market Value of Publicly Held Shares rule requiring at least $15.0 million. The company also failed to meet the annual meeting requirement within twelve months of its fiscal year end.

Nasdaq staff plans to delist Bayview’s securities from the Nasdaq Global Market unless the company appeals by February 26, 2026. An appeal to a Nasdaq Hearings Panel will stay trading suspension and filing of Form 25-NSE until a decision is reached, but the company explicitly notes there is no assurance of a successful outcome.

The potential suspension of trading from March 2, 2026 and possible removal from listing and registration introduce significant uncertainty around market access and liquidity. Subsequent disclosures about the appeal process and any remediation of listing deficiencies will shape how these listing risks evolve.

Item 3.01. Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

 

As previously disclosed in Bayview Acquisition Corp’s, a Cayman Islands exempted corporation (the “Company”) Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on August 26, 2025, the Company received a written notice from the Listing Qualifications Department (the “Staff”) of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that the Company is not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(b)(2)(A) (“the MVLS Rule”), which requires the Company to maintain a minimum Market Value of Listed Securities of $50.0 million.

 

On February 19, 2026, the Company received a written notice (the “Notice”) from the Staff notifying the Company that the Company has not regained compliance with the MVLS Rule, and also that the Company is not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rules 5450(b)(2)(C), 5810(c)(3)(D), 5810(b), and 5505 (collectively, the “MVPHS Rules”), which require the Company to maintain a minimum Market Value of Publicly Held Shares of $15.0 million, and Nasdaq Listing Rule 5620(a) (the “Annual Meeting Rule”), which requires the Company to hold an annual meeting of shareholders within twelve months of the end of its fiscal year. Accordingly, the Staff determined that the Company’s securities will be delisted from The Nasdaq Global Market unless the Company requests an appeal of this determination by February 26, 2026. The Notice states that if the Company does not appeal the Staff’s delisting determination by that date, trading of the Company’s common stock will be suspended at the opening of business on March 2, 2026, and a Form 25-NSE will be filed with the SEC, which will remove the Company’s securities from listing and registration on The Nasdaq Stock Market.

 

The Company intends to appeal the Staff’s delisting determination to a Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “Panel”) by February 26, 2026, and a hearing request will stay the suspension of the Company’s securities and the filing of the Form 25-NSE pending the Panel’s decision. However, there can be no assurance that such appeal would be successful.
