Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Veea Inc. converted significant related-party obligations into equity and moved to preserve its Nasdaq listing. On March 30, 2026, NLabs converted $16,876,400 of demand note principal and interest into 168,764 Series A preferred shares at $100.00 per share. Unpaid rent and fees totaling $4,323,600 under two New York lease arrangements were also converted into 43,236 Series A preferred shares.

Each Series A preferred share votes with common stock on an as-converted basis and is convertible into common stock using the $100.00 per share value divided by $0.503. Veea will issue NLabs a warrant to purchase 33,551,486 common shares at $0.503 per share and expects stockholders’ equity to be at least $5,000,000 after these conversions. The company has applied to transfer its listing from The Nasdaq Global Market to The Nasdaq Capital Market and requested an additional 180 days, until September 30, 2026, to regain compliance with Nasdaq’s minimum bid price requirement.

Insights

Veea converts insider debt and rent into preferred equity while seeking a Nasdaq Capital Market listing.

Veea restructured obligations owed to affiliates by converting $16,876,400 of NLabs demand notes and $4,323,600 of unpaid rent and fees into Series A preferred stock. This boosts reported stockholders’ equity to at least $5,000,000, an important threshold for Nasdaq Capital Market eligibility.

NLabs also receives a warrant for 33,551,486 common shares at $0.503 per share, creating substantial potential future dilution if exercised. The preferred stock votes with common on an as-converted basis and converts using the $100.00 per share value divided by $0.503, increasing NLabs’ influence. The company has applied to move from The Nasdaq Global Market to The Nasdaq Capital Market and requested time until September 30, 2026 to regain minimum bid price compliance after earlier deficiencies in bid price, market value of publicly held shares, and market value of listed securities.

Note Conversion Agreement financial
"entered into a Note Conversion Agreement (the “Note Conversion Agreement”) with NLabs Inc."
Series A Convertible Preferred Stock financial
"filed a Certificate of Designation of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock"
Series A convertible preferred stock is a class of shares sold in an early funding round that gives investors a mix of protection and upside: it pays a priority claim over common shares if the company is sold or closes, but can be converted into ordinary shares to share in future growth. Think of it like a hybrid between a safer stake and a ticket to ownership; it matters to investors because it affects who controls the company, how future gains are split, and how much their investment is protected from downside.
Nasdaq Capital Market financial
"application to transfer its listing to The Nasdaq Capital Market"
The Nasdaq Capital Market is a platform where smaller, emerging companies can list their shares for trading by investors. It provides these companies with access to funding and visibility, helping them grow, much like a local marketplace where new vendors can introduce their products to potential customers. For investors, it offers opportunities to discover early-stage companies with growth potential.
Minimum Bid Price Requirement financial
"no longer complies with the minimum bid price requirement for continued listing"
A minimum bid price requirement is a rule that a stock must trade above a set price for a specified period to stay listed on an exchange. It matters to investors because falling below that threshold can trigger warnings or removal from the exchange, which can cut liquidity, reduce visibility, and often lead to sharper declines in share value—think of it like a venue’s minimum dress code that, if not met, can bar a performer from the stage.
Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act regulatory
"in reliance on the exemption afforded by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act"
A legal exemption that allows a company to sell securities directly to a limited group of buyers without registering the offering with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Think of it like a private sale among known parties rather than a public auction: it can speed fundraising and reduce disclosure requirements, but it also means less public information, lower liquidity and resale restrictions—factors investors should consider when weighing risk and exit options.

On March 30, 2026, in connection with the execution of the Note Conversion Agreement and in consideration of NLabs’s entering into the Note Conversion Agreement, the Company and NLabs entered into the No. 1 Amendatory Agreement to the Demand Notes (the “Note Amendment Agreement”), pursuant to which (i) the face amount of each Demand Note was amended to adjust such face amount to equal the “Adjusted Face Amount” of such Demand Note reflected on Schedule I thereof and (ii) the Company shall issue to NLabs a warrant to purchase 33,551,486 shares of the Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.503 per share (the “Common Warrant”).

 

The foregoing summaries of the Note Amendment Agreement and Common Warrant are not complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Note Amendment Agreement and Warrant, copies of which are attached hereto as Exhibits 10.3 and 4.1 and are incorporated herein by reference.

 

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

 

As previously disclosed, on September 29, 2025, the Company received a notice from Nasdaq Listing Qualifications department (the “Nasdaq Staff”) notifying the Company that, (i) based on the market value of publicly held shares for the previous 30 consecutive business days, the listing of the Company’s listed securities was not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(b)(2)(C) to maintain a minimum market value of publicly held shares of $15,000,000 (the “MVPHS Rule”); (ii) for at least 30 consecutive business days, the Company’s Market Value of Listed Securities (“MVLS”) was below the $50 million minimum requirement for continued inclusion on The Nasdaq Global Market pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(b)(2)(A) (the “MVLS Requirement”); and (iii) because the closing bid price for the Common Stock has fallen below $1.00 per share for 30 consecutive business days, the Company no longer complies with the minimum bid price requirement for continued listing on the Nasdaq Global Market under Nasdaq Lising Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Minimum Bid Price Requirement”).

 

Pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company has been provided an initial compliance period of 180 calendar days, or until March 30, 2026, to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement, subject to extension. Pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(D), the Company has been provided a period of 180 calendar days, or until March 30, 2026, to regain compliance with the MVPHS Rule. Pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(C), the Company has been provided a period of 180 calendar days, or until March 30, 2026, to regain compliance with the MVLS Requirement.

 

In response, on March 27, 2026, the Company submitted an application to transfer the listing of its listed securities from The Nasdaq Global Market to The Nasdaq Capital Market. In connection with the submission to transfer the Company’s listing, the Company has requested a second period of 180 calendar days, or until September 30, 2026, to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement for continued listing.

 

The transfer of the Company’s listing to The Nasdaq Capital Market is not expected to have any immediate effect on trading in shares of Common Stock and publicly traded warrants (the “Public Warrants”). The Common Stock and Public Warrants will continue to trade uninterruptedly under the symbol “VEEA” and “VEEAW”, respectively. The Nasdaq Capital Market operates in substantially the same manner as The Nasdaq Global Market, and companies on The Nasdaq Capital Market must meet certain financial and corporate governance requirements to qualify for continued listing.
