Rhea-AI Filing Summary

loanDepot, Inc. (LDI) disclosed that it received a notice from the New York Stock Exchange on August 21, 2026 stating that the company is not in compliance with the NYSE continued listing standard in Section 802.01C, because the average closing price of its Class A common stock was below $1.00 per share over a consecutive 30 trading-day period. Trading in the shares continues and the notice has no immediate impact on NYSE listing status, business operations, or SEC reporting.

Under NYSE rules, loanDepot has six months from receipt of the notice to regain compliance, which it can do if the stock closes at or above $1.00 and has a 30-trading-day average of at least $1.00 on the last trading day of any calendar month in that period. If it does not regain compliance, the NYSE will begin suspension and delisting procedures. The company stated it intends to cure the deficiency and is considering alternatives, including a potential reverse stock split subject to stockholder approval by its next annual meeting anticipated for early June 2027. Management also highlighted recent operational progress, including last-quarter growth of 25% in unit volume, 18% in revenue, and 33% in purchase market share.

Positive

  • Management reports last-quarter growth of 25% in unit volume, 18% in revenue, and 33% in purchase market share, indicating recent operating momentum.
  • loanDepot explicitly states its intent to cure the NYSE price deficiency and is considering alternatives including a potential reverse stock split to help restore compliance.

Negative

  • loanDepot has fallen below the NYSE’s minimum $1.00 average closing share price requirement over 30 trading days, triggering a non-compliance notice.
  • If loanDepot does not regain compliance within the six‑month cure period, the NYSE will initiate procedures to suspend and delist its Class A common stock.

continued listing standard regulatory
"not in compliance with the continued listing standard set forth in Section 802.01C"
Continued listing standards are the ongoing rules a stock exchange or trading venue requires a company to meet to keep its shares listed, such as minimum share price, market value, shareholder equity, and timely financial reporting. For investors, these standards matter because failure to meet them can trigger warnings or removal from the exchange, which can reduce a stock’s visibility, trading liquidity, and value—similar to how failing building inspections can limit a business’s ability to operate publicly.
Section 802.01C regulatory
"standard set forth in Section 802.01C of the NYSE's Listed Company Manual"
reverse stock split financial
"consider available alternatives to cure the stock price non-compliance, including, if necessary, a reverse stock split"
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.
warehouse lines of credit financial
"our ability to maintain warehouse lines of credit and other sources of capital"
A warehouse line of credit is a short-term revolving loan that a lender or dealer uses to temporarily fund assets—such as mortgages, loans, or inventory—until those assets are sold, packaged, or otherwise converted to long-term funding. Think of it as a bridge loan or an overdraft that helps keep business flowing; investors watch these lines because their size, cost, and availability signal whether a company can maintain growth, manage cash needs, and withstand market disruptions.
home equity lending financial
"We executed a successful and strategic expansion into home equity lending, at scale"
forward-looking statements regulatory
"Forward-Looking Statements This press release contains forward-looking statements"
Forward-looking statements are predictions or plans that companies share about what they expect to happen in the future, like estimating sales or profits. They matter because they help investors understand a company's outlook, but since they are based on guesses and assumptions, they can sometimes be wrong.

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

On August 21, 2026, loanDepot, Inc. (the "Company") received a written notice (the "Notice") from the New York Stock Exchange (the "NYSE") that it was not in compliance with the continued listing standard set forth in Section 802.01C of the NYSE's Listed Company Manual ("Section 802.01C"), because the average closing price of the Company's Class A Common Stock (the "Common Stock"), was less than $1.00 per share over a consecutive 30 trading-day period. The Notice has no immediate impact on the listing of the Company's Common Stock on the NYSE, subject to the Company’s compliance with the NYSE’s other continued listing requirements. The Notice does not affect the Company’s business operations or its reporting obligations with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Pursuant to Section 802.01C, the Company has a period of six months following the receipt of the Notice to regain compliance with the minimum share price requirement. The Company may regain compliance at any time during the six-month cure period if, on the last trading day of any calendar month during the six-month cure period, the Common Stock has a closing share price of at least $1.00 and an average closing share price of at least $1.00 over the 30 trading-day period ending on the last trading day of that month. If the Company is unable to regain compliance with the $1.00 share price rule within this period, the NYSE will initiate procedures to suspend and delist the Common Stock. However, if the Company determines that it will cure the price condition by taking an action that will require shareholder approval, the Company must so inform the NYSE and must obtain shareholder approval no later than its next annual meeting of stockholders, and must implement the action promptly thereafter.

Section 802.01C requires the Company to notify the NYSE, within 10 business days of receipt of the Notice, of its intent to cure this deficiency. The Company intends to notify the NYSE of its intent to regain compliance with the requirements of Section 802.01C within such time period.

IRVINE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- loanDepot, Inc.

By continuously leveraging our unique assets, including one of the most differentiated customer acquisition and retention business models in the marketplace today, and by prudently and actively managing our capital and debt obligations, we believe we can create sustainable stockholder value. As we do that, we expect our stock price to reflect our success.”

Furthermore, there is no immediate impact on the ongoing business operations of loanDepot or its reporting requirements with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
The notice was received because as of August 20, 2026, the average closing price of loanDepot’s Class A Common Stock (the “Common Stock”) was less than $1.00 per share over a consecutive 30 trading-day period (the “Notice”).
loanDepot will respond to the NYSE within ten business days of receipt of the notice of its intent to cure the deficiency.
