PowerCompute, Inc. regained compliance with Nasdaq's minimum $1.00 bid price requirement for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market. After its stock closed below $1.00 for 30 consecutive business days as of January 6, 2026, Nasdaq granted an initial 180-day cure period to July 6, 2026, followed by a second 180-day period to January 4, 2027.

Nasdaq later notified PowerCompute on July 27, 2026 that its common stock had satisfied the minimum bid requirement for the required period and that the compliance matter was closed. The company also highlights its strategy as a Bitcoin treasury and mining and technology-based specialty finance business expanding into high-performance computing and AI infrastructure, operating 26 megawatts of wholly owned power capacity across facilities in Oklahoma and Mississippi.

Positive

  • Nasdaq bid-price compliance restored, preserving the company's listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market after extended cure periods and a 1-for-25 reverse stock split.

reverse stock split financial
"The Company completed a 1-for-25 reverse split of its common stock"
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.

"expanding into high-performance computing ("HPC") and artificial intelligence ("AI") infrastructure"
A cluster of very powerful computers, special chips and fast networks designed to tackle huge, complex calculations far faster than a normal PC — like replacing a single delivery van with a synchronized fleet to move a city’s worth of packages. For investors, high-performance computing matters because it enables faster product development, more accurate simulations and data analysis, and new revenue streams for hardware, software and services, making firms that supply or use it potentially more competitive and scalable.
Bitcoin treasury financial
"PowerCompute, Inc. ... is a Bitcoin treasury and mining company"
A bitcoin treasury is a collection of bitcoin holdings owned by a company or organization, similar to how a savings account stores money. It represents a strategic reserve of digital currency that can be used for investments, operational costs, or future growth. For investors, a bitcoin treasury can signal financial strength or a company's confidence in cryptocurrencies as part of its long-term plans.

Item 8.01 Other Events.

As previously reported, on January 7, 2026, PowerCompute, Inc. f/k/a LM Funding America, Inc. (the “Company”) received a letter from the Listing Qualifications Staff of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that its consolidated closing bid price had been below $1.00 per share for 30 consecutive business days as of January 6, 2026, and therefore, the Company’s common stock was no longer in compliance with the $1.00 bid price per share requirement for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market, as set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Bid Price Rule”). In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rules, the Company was provided 180 calendar days, or until July 6, 2026, to regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule.

On July 7, 2026, the Company received a second letter (the “Second Notification”) from Nasdaq notifying the Company that the Company’s common stock had not regained compliance with the Bid Price Rule. However, Nasdaq determined that the Company was eligible for an additional 180 calendar day period, or until January 4, 2027, to regain compliance. Nasdaq’s determination was based on the Company meeting the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other applicable requirements for initial listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market, with the exception of the Bid Price Rule, and the Company’s written notice of its intention to cure the deficiency during the second compliance period by effecting a reverse stock split, if necessary. The Company completed a 1-for-25 reverse split of its common stock effective July 3, 2026.

On July 27, 2024, the Company received written notification from Nasdaq indicating that the Company’s common stock had a closing price of $1.00 per share or greater for the last ten consecutive business days, from July 13, 2026 to July 24, 2024, and that, as a result, the Company has regained compliance with the Bid Price Requirement and that the matter is now closed.

The Company issued a press release announcing Nasdaq compliance on July 29, 2026.
