Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Blink Charging Co. reported that it received a deficiency notice from Nasdaq because its common stock failed to meet the minimum bid price requirement of $1.00 per share for 30 consecutive business days. This means the company is currently not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2).

The stock remains listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market, and Blink has 180 calendar days, until July 27, 2026, to regain compliance by having its closing bid price at or above $1.00 for at least ten consecutive business days. If it still does not comply, Nasdaq may grant an additional 180-day period if certain other listing standards are met.

If Blink ultimately fails to regain compliance, its common stock could be delisted from Nasdaq and quoted instead on an OTC marketplace, which the company notes as an expected alternative if listing is lost.

Positive

  • None.

Negative

  • Nasdaq listing at risk due to bid-price deficiency: Blink Charging Co. is out of compliance with Nasdaq’s $1.00 minimum bid price rule and faces a potential future delisting to OTC trading if it cannot regain compliance within the available cure periods.

Insights

Blink faces Nasdaq bid-price noncompliance with a defined cure window.

Blink Charging Co. has fallen below Nasdaq’s $1.00 minimum bid price rule for 30 consecutive business days, triggering a formal deficiency notice. The shares remain on The Nasdaq Capital Market, but the company now operates under a compliance clock.

The company has until July 27, 2026 to lift its closing bid to at least $1.00 for ten straight business days. A second 180-day period is possible if it satisfies other initial listing standards, including market value of publicly held shares.

If Blink does not regain compliance after the available periods, Nasdaq may initiate delisting, with appeal rights to a hearings panel. The company notes that, in that scenario, its shares would be expected to trade on an OTC marketplace instead, which typically implies lower liquidity and visibility for investors.

CURRENT REPORT ON FORM 8-K

Blink Charging Co. (the “Company”)

January 26, 2026

 

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

 

On January 26, 2026, the Company received a deficiency letter (the “Notice”) from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that, based upon the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”), for the prior 30 consecutive business days, the Company is not currently in compliance with the requirement to maintain a minimum bid price of $1.00 per share for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market, as set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Minimum Bid Requirement”).

 

The Notice has no immediate effect on the continued listing status of the Common Stock on The Nasdaq Capital Market and, therefore, the Company’s listing remains fully effective.

 

In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company is provided with a compliance period of 180 calendar days from the date of the Notice, or until July 27, 2026, to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Requirement. To regain compliance, the closing bid price of the Common Stock must meet or exceed $1.00 per share for a minimum of ten consecutive business days prior to July 27, 2026, unless the Nasdaq staff exercises its discretion to extend this ten-day period pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(H).

 

If the Company is not in compliance with the Minimum Bid Requirement by July 27, 2026, the Company may be afforded a second 180 calendar day compliance period. To qualify for this additional compliance period, the Company will be required to meet the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other initial listing standards for The Nasdaq Capital Market, with the exception of the Minimum Bid Price requirement.

 

The Company will continue to monitor the closing bid prices of its Common Stock and seek to regain compliance with Nasdaq requirements within the allotted compliance period. If the Company does not regain compliance within the allotted compliance period, including any extensions that may be granted by Nasdaq, Nasdaq will provide notice that the Common Stock will be subject to delisting. The Company would then be entitled to appeal that determination to a Nasdaq hearings panel.

 

The Company will evaluate available options to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Requirement. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Requirement during the 180-day compliance period, secure a second period of 180 days to regain compliance or maintain compliance with the other Nasdaq listing requirements.

 

If the Common Stock ceases to be listed for trading on The Nasdaq Capital Market, the Company expects that the Common Stock would be quoted on one of the three-tiered marketplaces of the OTC Markets Group.

FAQ

What Nasdaq notice did Blink Charging Co. (BLNK) receive?

Blink Charging Co. received a Nasdaq deficiency letter stating its common stock no longer meets the $1.00 minimum bid price requirement, after trading below that level for 30 consecutive business days. This starts a formal compliance period but does not immediately affect its current Nasdaq listing.

Is Blink Charging Co. (BLNK) being delisted from Nasdaq now?

Blink Charging Co. is not being delisted immediately. The company’s shares remain fully listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market while it has an initial 180-day period, through July 27, 2026, to restore its closing bid price to at least $1.00 for ten consecutive business days.

How long does Blink Charging Co. (BLNK) have to regain Nasdaq bid-price compliance?

Blink Charging Co. has 180 calendar days, until July 27, 2026, to regain compliance by achieving a closing bid price of at least $1.00 per share for a minimum of ten consecutive business days. Nasdaq may allow a second 180-day period if other initial listing standards are met.

Can Blink Charging Co. (BLNK) receive more time beyond July 27, 2026?

Blink Charging Co. may receive a second 180-day compliance period if, by July 27, 2026, it satisfies Nasdaq’s initial listing standards other than the minimum bid price, including market value of publicly held shares. Granting this additional period is subject to Nasdaq’s rules and discretion.

What happens if Blink Charging Co. (BLNK) ultimately fails to regain Nasdaq compliance?

If Blink Charging Co. does not regain compliance within the allowed periods, Nasdaq may move to delist the common stock. Blink would be entitled to appeal to a Nasdaq hearings panel and currently expects its shares would then be quoted on an OTC Markets Group marketplace.

Does the Nasdaq deficiency notice affect Blink Charging Co. (BLNK) operations?

The notice does not directly affect business operations; it concerns only listing status and share price requirements. Blink’s common stock remains traded on The Nasdaq Capital Market while the company monitors its closing bid price and evaluates options to regain minimum bid-price compliance.
