How this balance works

Rhea-AI gives every point it takes from this document a weight. Minor counts 1, Moderate 3 and Major 9, so one Major point outweighs several Minor ones. The bar adds up the weights on each side, and when neither side holds more than 65% of the total the balance reads Mixed.

It reads the document as published, with the same rules for every company, and it does not look at what the market expected or at how the stock traded, so a point can be objectively good on a day the stock falls.

Rhea-AI Sentiment measures something else, the tone of the wording.

Analyzing...

Hearings Panel appeal date October 23, 2026 Robot Consulting appealed Nasdaq’s delisting determination
Delisting determination announcement date October 24, 2026 Robot Consulting announced receipt of the determination
American Depository Shares financial
"delist the Company’s American Depository Shares"
American depository shares are U.S.-listed securities that stand in for a foreign company’s ordinary shares, held by a U.S. bank which issues the ADS so investors can trade the foreign stock in U.S. dollars and on U.S. exchanges. Think of them like a locally wrapped version of a foreign product—easier to buy and sell at home—but they still carry risks from currency differences, foreign rules and potential limits on voting rights, so they affect access, liquidity and investment risk.
Hearings Panel regulatory
"appealed the Staff’s determination to a Hearings Panel"
A hearings panel is a review body at a stock exchange that hears the case when the exchange has decided a company no longer qualifies to keep its shares listed. The company presents a plan to regain compliance, and the panel decides whether the listing continues, on what conditions, and for how long. The decision can keep a stock trading or end its listing.
Form 25-NSE regulatory
"filing of the Form 25-NSE by Nasdaq will be stayed"
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.
trading halt regulatory
"the existing trading halt will remain in effect"
A trading halt is a temporary pause on buying and selling a particular stock imposed by an exchange or regulator, like pressing the pause button on a game so everyone can catch up. It is used to give the market time to absorb important new information or to prevent chaotic price swings, and matters to investors because it freezes the ability to trade, delays price discovery, and can change risk and strategy until normal trading resumes.

Exhibit 99.1

 

Robot Consulting Announces Receipt of Nasdaq Delisting Determination and Request to Appeal such Determination Before a Hearings Panel

 

Tokyo, Japan – October 24, 2026 – Robot Consulting Co., Ltd. (Nasdaq: LAWR) (“Robot Consulting” or the “Company”), a Japanese platform service provider focusing on human resource solutions and legal technology, announced it has received a delisting determination from the Listing Qualifications Department (the “Staff”) of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company of the Staff’s determination to delist the Company’s American Depository Shares (“ADSs”) pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rules 5101 and IM-5101-4.

 

The Staff’s determination is based on concerns regarding historical trading activity in the Company’s securities and Nasdaq’s belief that certain factors may have made the Company’s securities susceptible to manipulation by third parties.

 

Nasdaq Listing Rule IM-5101-4 allows Nasdaq “to exercise discretion to delist a company from Nasdaq based on the potential for one or more third parties to engage in misconduct impacting a company’s securities where the [U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission] has implemented a temporary trading suspension.” Nasdaq has articulated its belief that the ability for third parties to manipulate a security’s price indicates that the security does not have sufficient liquidity to promote fair and orderly markets and, therefore, delisting is consistent with the protection of investors and the public interest.

 

The Company has appealed the Staff’s determination to a Hearings Panel (the “Panel”) on October 23, 2026. As a result of the appeal, the suspension of the Company’s securities and the filing of the Form 25-NSE by Nasdaq with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) will be stayed pending the Panel’s review and decision, although the existing trading halt will remain in effect unless and until it has been lifted by Nasdaq.

 

To date, Nasdaq has not claimed or communicated a view that there has been any wrongdoing by the Company, whether in regard to Nasdaq’s investigation of the recent trading activity of the Company’s securities or otherwise. The delisting determination does not have any immediate effect on the Company’s ongoing business operations or financial condition, and the Company will continue to conduct its business in the ordinary course.
