Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Skillz Inc. received an extension from the New York Stock Exchange to remain listed while it catches up on overdue SEC reports. The NYSE had previously notified Skillz on April 2, 2025 that it was out of compliance for failing to timely file its Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024. After Skillz submitted a compliance plan, the NYSE granted an additional cure period through December 17, 2025, allowing the stock to continue trading during this time.

The company must file its 2024 Form 10-K, its Form 10-Qs for the quarters ended March 31, 2025 and June 30, 2025, and any other delayed quarterly reports by that date to regain compliance. Skillz states it is working diligently and expects to complete these delayed filings before the NYSE deadline, while also highlighting ongoing risks such as revenue pressures, competition, regulatory compliance, cybersecurity, and previously identified material weaknesses in internal controls.

Positive

  • None.

Negative

  • NYSE non-compliance and listing risk: Skillz remains out of compliance with NYSE timely filing requirements and must complete multiple delayed SEC reports by December 17, 2025 to maintain its listing, creating meaningful regulatory and trading-risk overhang.

Insights

Skillz avoids immediate NYSE delisting but remains on a tight compliance deadline.

Skillz Inc. has secured an additional cure period from the NYSE through December 17, 2025 to regain compliance with listing rules tied to timely SEC reporting. This follows a prior notice related to its missing Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, and signals that the exchange is permitting more time rather than moving directly toward delisting.

The extension is conditional: Skillz must become current on its SEC filings, including the 2024 Form 10-K and Form 10-Qs for the quarters ended March 31, 2025 and June 30, 2025, plus any additional delayed quarterly reports. Failure to meet this deadline could put the NYSE listing at renewed risk, which would be a significant negative for liquidity and investor access.

The company also references broader risks, such as declining revenue, competition in gaming, regulatory and cybersecurity obligations, and material weaknesses in internal controls it aims to remediate during fiscal year 2025. Future company filings will show whether the outstanding reports are completed ahead of the NYSE’s December 17, 2025 deadline and whether internal control remediation progresses as planned.

Item 3.01.Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing
 
As previously disclosed, on April 2, 2025, Skillz Inc. (the “Company”) received a notice from the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) indicating that the Company was not in compliance with the NYSE’s continued listing requirements under the timely filing criteria outlined in Section 802.01E of the NYSE Listed Company Manual, as a result of the Company not timely filing its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 (the “2024 Form 10-K”). The NYSE informed the Company that, under the NYSE’s rules, the Company would have six months to file the 2024 Form 10-K with the SEC and that the NYSE would continue to list the Company’s shares on the NYSE, provided that the Company regains compliance with Section 802.01E within the initial six-month cure period.

The Company presented a compliance plan to the NYSE in September 2025 to request an additional extension period for the continued listing of its Class A common stock on the NYSE (the “Additional Cure Period”) in order for the Company to complete and file its 2024 Form 10-K, and its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarterly periods ended March 31, 2025 and June 30, 2025, and any subsequent delinquent SEC quarterly filings (collectively, the “Delayed Filings”), and regain compliance with the NYSE’s continued listing requirements.

On September 25, 2025, the NYSE granted the Company’s request for an Additional Cure Period and agreed to provide the Company with an extension to continue its listing on the NYSE through December 17, 2025, subject to NYSE’s ongoing reassessment and provided the Company becomes current with its SEC filings by such date. The Company continues to work diligently to complete and file the Delayed Filings as soon as reasonably practicable, which the Company expects to be in advance of the timing requirements set forth by the NYSE.


Forward-Looking Statements

This Current Report on Form 8-K includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The Company’s actual results may differ from its expectations, estimates, and projections and, consequently, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Words such as “expect,” “estimate,” “project,” “budget,” “forecast.” “anticipate.” “intend,” “plan,” “may,” “will,” “could,” “should,” “believes,” “predicts,” “potential,” “continue,” and similar expressions (or the negative versions of such words or expressions) are intended to identify such forward-looking statements.

These forward-looking statements involve significant risks and uncertainties that could cause the Company’s actual results to differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements. Most of these factors are outside of the Company’s control and are difficult to predict. Factors that may cause such differences include, but are not limited to, the ability of the Company to: sustain profitability if the Company’s revenue continues to decline; effectively compete in the global entertainment and gaming industries; attract and retain successful relationships with the third party developers who develop and update the games hosted on the Company’s platform; drive brand awareness with end users; issues in the development and use of artificial intelligence and machine learning; invest in growth and development of employees; comply with laws, regulations and expectations applicable to its business, including with respect to cybersecurity and corporate governance matters; mitigate the commercial, reputational and regulatory risks to our business; remediate during fiscal year 2025 certain non-fully remediated material weaknesses in our internal controls over financial reporting and become current with its SEC filings. Additional factors that may cause such differences include other risks and uncertainties indicated from time to time in the Company’s SEC filings, including those under “Risk Factors” therein, which are available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. Additional information will be made available in other filings that the Company makes from time to time with the SEC.
