Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Luokung Technology Corp. (LKCO) has filed Form 25 with the SEC, indicating that its ordinary shares will be removed from listing and registration on the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC. Nasdaq, as the listing exchange, submitted the notice under Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act and Rule 12d2-2. The filing, signed by a Nasdaq hearings advisor on 21 July 2025, certifies that the exchange has satisfied all procedural requirements to delist the security. The company’s ordinary shares will therefore cease to trade on Nasdaq after the rule-mandated waiting period (generally 10 days for delisting and 90 days for deregistration) unless the SEC issues contrary instructions.

The notice does not provide financial metrics, but the delisting is a material corporate event because it:

  • Eliminates access to a major U.S. exchange, typically reducing trading liquidity and visibility.
  • May move the shares to an over-the-counter (OTC) venue, often accompanied by wider bid-ask spreads and higher volatility.
  • Could trigger technical defaults in certain institutional mandates that prohibit holding unlisted securities.

No information is given on appeal rights or alternative listing plans. Investors should monitor LKCO for subsequent 8-K disclosures and determine the post-Nasdaq trading venue.

Positive

  • None.

Negative

  • Loss of Nasdaq listing likely diminishes liquidity, increases volatility, and may compel forced selling by institutions bound by exchange-listing requirements.

Insights

TL;DR: Nasdaq filed Form 25 to delist LKCO, materially lowering liquidity and institutional eligibility.

Delisting from Nasdaq removes LKCO from a regulated, highly visible marketplace, which historically reduces average daily volume and increases price volatility. The move may force index funds and mandate-constrained institutions to exit positions, exerting downward pressure. Unless LKCO secures another national exchange or demonstrates compelling fundamentals, its cost of capital could rise and analyst coverage decline. Impact: negative and immediately actionable.
