Northann Corp. elected Vincent La Scala to its board on October 5, 2026, filling the vacancy created by Umesh Patel’s resignation. La Scala will chair the Audit Committee and serve on the Nomination and Compensation Committees. The board determined he qualifies as an independent director and is financially literate and an audit committee financial expert. He has more than 30 years of financial-services experience, including over 30 years at Citigroup in senior credit-risk roles.
Northann also said former Chief Executive Officer Lin Li agreed to sell all securities he beneficially owns to an unrelated third-party investor: 1,803,750 shares of Common Stock and 625,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock. The transfer is pending completion of certain paperwork; upon closing, Li will no longer beneficially own Northann securities.
Northann Corp. appointed its current Chairman, Bradley C. Lalonde, as Co-CEO alongside François Vachon after a Board vote on September 30, 2026. Lalonde accepted the executive role and remains Chairman of the Board.
Northann Corp. (NCL) reports two significant developments. First, NYSE Regulation has determined to commence proceedings to delist the company’s common stock from NYSE American, following a notice dated August 21, 2026. On August 28, 2026, Northann requested an oral hearing and review before the Exchange’s Listings Qualifications Panel.
Second, after the June 8, 2026 resignation of LAO Professionals as independent auditor, the Audit Committee appointed TQ International, PLLC on August 26, 2026 as the new independent registered public accounting firm. TQ is engaged to audit Northann’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025 and to review unaudited interim financial information for the quarters ended March 31, 2026 and June 30, 2026, subject to customary client acceptance procedures.
Northann Corp. (NCL) filed an amended current report to update an earlier disclosure about its auditor. The company had previously reported that LAO Professionals resigned as its independent registered public accounting firm and referenced non-reliance on certain prior financial statements and related audit work. This amendment states that Northann furnished LAO Professionals with the disclosures under Items 4.01 and 4.02 and requested a response letter to the SEC indicating whether the auditor agrees with those statements and, if not, the respects in which it disagrees. Northann reports that it received this letter dated August 21, 2026 and is filing it as Exhibit 16.1. The company notes that, aside from adding this auditor letter, there are no other changes to the prior report.
Northann Corp. (NCL) reports that NYSE Regulation has determined its common stock is not suitable for continued listing under Sections 1001, 1002(e), 1003 and 1007 of the NYSE American Company Guide and will commence proceedings to delist the shares from NYSE American.
Trading in the common stock had already been halted on June 25, 2026, and the Exchange has now suspended trading effective immediately. Northann expects its shares to begin quotation on the OTC Markets under the symbol “NCLX”, possibly as soon as August 24, 2026. The company warns that OTC quotation is significantly more limited than NYSE American and may lead to reduced liquidity, potential pressure on the trading price, greater difficulty raising capital, and challenges in using equity incentives. Northann has the right to seek review of the delisting decision by the Exchange’s Listings Qualifications Panel and is evaluating whether to pursue this appeal.
Northann Corp. (NCL) announced significant leadership changes. On August 13, 2026, the Board accepted the resignation of Lin Li as Chief Executive Officer, President, Secretary and Treasurer, effective immediately, and on August 18, 2026, he resigned from the Board. Following these actions, he no longer holds any role in management, governance, finance, reporting, or NYSE American compliance matters at the company.
On August 13, 2026, the Board appointed director and Chief Operating Officer Kurtis W. Winn to also serve as President, Secretary and Treasurer, and appointed François Vachon as Chief Executive Officer, later adding him to the Board on August 18, 2026. Vachon, designated as principal executive officer, will focus on NYSE American standards, public-company governance and compliance, remediation of delinquent Exchange Act reports, oversight of auditors and listing adviser, and U.S. manufacturing and sales-growth initiatives. He will receive a base salary of $7,000 per month for three months and $10,000 per month thereafter under a one-year employment term, with no bonus or equity grant in connection with his appointment.
Northann Corp. reported that trading in its common stock on NYSE American was halted on June 25, 2026 after the exchange raised concerns that the company’s 2025 Form 10‑K may have been filed without proper auditor consent. The board formed an Oversight Committee to supervise regulatory compliance, financial reporting, corporate governance and to conduct an independent review, and engaged outside counsel for this work.
Northann’s former independent registered public accounting firm, LAO Professionals, sent a June 8, 2026 letter stating it was resigning and that it had not completed its audit or authorized the audit report included in the 2025 Form 10‑K. In response, Northann concluded that investors should not rely on its financial statements for 2024 and 2025 in that filing and plans to engage a new auditor to perform a new audit of those years. The company also disclosed leadership and governance changes: CEO Lin Li briefly tendered, then rescinded, his resignation as CEO and President and stepped down as board chair, with independent director Bradley C. Lalonde becoming chair. Independent director Umesh Patel resigned, citing concerns about unpaid agreed board compensation and the absence of D&O liability insurance.
Northann Corp. announced that NYSE American has formally confirmed the company has regained full compliance with all continued listing standards in Part 10 of the NYSE American Company Guide. The prior deficiency related to the stockholders’ equity requirement under Section 1003(a)(i), cited in a December 8, 2025 notice, has been resolved.
The exchange determined that Northann met the applicable standards for two consecutive quarters under Section 1009(f). As a result, the “below compliance” (“.BC”) indicator for the company’s common stock will be removed and Northann will be taken off the NYSE American list of noncompliant issuers, while remaining subject to normal continued listing monitoring.
The company highlights renewed business momentum built on proprietary multi-layer 3D printing and digital embossing technology, with brands such as Benchwick, SuperOak, DotFloor, and Blue11 sold through major North American retailers. Management also points to plans to leverage artificial intelligence to enhance products and customer experience, while acknowledging forward-looking risks and uncertainties in its cautionary statements.
Northann Corp. announced that NYSE American has accepted its plan to regain compliance with the exchange’s continued listing standards. The company has until June 8, 2027 to meet these requirements, during which its common stock will remain listed and traded on NYSE American under the symbol NCL.
During this plan period, the exchange will periodically review Northann’s progress and may start delisting proceedings if compliance is not restored or if progress falls short of the plan. Management is pursuing a 2026 roadmap that includes expanding into major North American retail channels, forming partnerships with manufacturers in the United States, and optimizing the capital structure.
Northann Corp. reported results of its annual general meeting held on December 31, 2025. Stockholders elected five directors and ratified LAO Professionals as the independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2025.
They approved a Board-authorized reverse stock split of the common stock at a ratio between 1-for-3 and 1-for-20, with no change to authorized capital. Stockholders also approved adding 2,000,000 shares to the 2023 Equity Incentive Plan.
In addition, stockholders authorized the issuance of 12,500,000 shares of common stock to a designee of Kingsford Consultancy Ltd. under an asset purchase agreement, and 15,000,000 shares to a designee of Asia Resource Holdings Limited under a development agreement, each representing an increase of more than 20% of presently outstanding common stock.
Northann Corp. reported that its founder and Chief Executive Officer issued a letter to stockholders providing an update on the company. The stockholder letter is included as an exhibit to this report so investors can review the CEO’s communication in full. Northann also released a press release describing the stockholder letter, which is provided as a separate exhibit. The information is being furnished under the securities laws rather than formally filed, which limits how it is incorporated into other regulatory documents.
Northann Corp. disclosed two new consulting arrangements that will be paid in company stock rather than cash. The company agreed to a Financing and Strategic Planning Advisory Agreement with Linkun Investment LLC for a six-month term starting on execution, under which it will issue 1,800,000 shares of common stock to two individuals designated by Linkun Investment as compensation, after NYSE American approval and relying on a Section 4(a)(2) registration exemption.
Northann also entered into an Operation and Strategic Planning Advisory Agreement with Lu Wang, covering strategic planning services for business development from July 1, 2025 to June 30, 2026. As consideration, the company agreed to issue 1,500,000 common shares to an individual designated by Lu Wang, likewise only after NYSE American approval and in reliance on the Section 4(a)(2) exemption for unregistered sales of securities.
Northann Corp. disclosed that NYSE American has notified the company it is not meeting a key continued listing standard. The exchange cited stockholders’ equity of approximately $1.8 million as of September 30, 2025, below the required $2.0 million threshold for companies that have recorded losses in two of their three most recent fiscal years ended December 31, 2024.
Northann has until January 7, 2026 to submit a plan to regain compliance by June 8, 2027, and it must first clear an outstanding $60,000 fee balance before the plan will be reviewed. For now, the company’s common stock continues trading on NYSE American under the symbol NCL, with an added .BC suffix indicating “below compliance,” and the notice does not change its operations or SEC reporting obligations.
Northann Corp. entered into two equity-funded technology agreements. It signed an asset purchase agreement with Kingsford Consultancy Ltd. under which Kingsford will provide proprietary supply chain management software and related intellectual property. Northann will pay $5,000,000 by issuing 12,500,000 common shares at $0.40 per share, with closing subject to stockholder and NYSE American approval.
Northann also signed a development agreement with Asia Resource Holdings Limited for the NCL Customized Intelligent Decoration Platform and related intellectual property. As consideration, Northann will issue 15,000,000 common shares at $0.40 per share, in two tranches of 8,000,000 and 7,000,000 shares. Both issuances rely on the Section 4(a)(2) exemption, and the shares will be restricted and issued to non-affiliate designees for investment purposes.
Northann Corp. implemented a 1-for-8 reverse stock split of its common stock and Series A preferred stock, effective October 7, 2025 at 16:30 ET. Every eight shares were combined into one share, with fractional shares rounded up to full shares so that holders will not receive cash for fractions. The reverse split does not change any holder's percentage ownership, voting power, or the par value of common and preferred stock. The common stock will trade on a split-adjusted basis on the NYSE American under the existing symbol NCL beginning at the open on October 8, 2025. A new CUSIP 66373M 408 was assigned in connection with the reverse split.
Northann Corp. will implement an 8-for-1 reverse stock split effective October 7, 2025, so every eight shares of Common or Preferred Stock issued and outstanding will be converted into one share. The split will be applied uniformly to all outstanding Common and Preferred shares using the same exchange ratio.
The company will amend its charter and the Certificate of Designation for Preferred Stock to reflect the split while leaving the number of authorized shares and the par value unchanged. Fractional shares resulting from the conversion will be rounded up so that each affected stockholder receives the additional fraction necessary to hold a whole share.
Northann Corp. closed a previously announced private placement with X29 LLC (lead) and four passive investors, issuing an aggregate 80,000,000 shares of common stock on September 3, 2025. The closing price was set at $0.14284 per share based on the five-day average prior to the closing, and each purchaser wired $2,285,440 as payment. After the issuance the company reported 175,464,400 shares outstanding. The company stated it intends to use the proceeds for working capital. Shareholder approval and NYSE American approval had been obtained earlier.
