Rhea-AI Filing Summary

WANG & LEE GROUP, Inc. reports that Nasdaq has decided to delist its securities from the Nasdaq Capital Market, with trading suspended at the open on August 26, 2025. Nasdaq’s decision cites violations of its Public Interest Concern, Listing of Additional Shares, Bid Price, and Low Priced Stocks rules.

The company had appealed earlier staff delisting determinations and presented a remediation plan, including a reverse stock split, cancellation and repricing protections for certain convertible notes, minimum floor prices for future financings, and commitments on timely share-count reporting. Despite this plan, Nasdaq denied the company’s request to remain listed.

The company expects its securities to trade on the OTC Pink Current Market for now and states that it will work to qualify for the higher-tier OTCQB or OTCQX markets in the future.

Insights

Nasdaq delisting moves WLGS to OTC Pink, raising trading and perception risks.

WANG & LEE GROUP, Inc. discloses that Nasdaq will delist its securities and suspend trading on August 26, 2025 after determining the company violated listing rules related to public interest, additional share listings, minimum bid price, and low-priced stocks. This removes the stock from a major U.S. exchange and typically reduces visibility and accessibility for many institutional and retail investors.

The company had presented a turnaround plan to a Nasdaq Hearings Panel, including a reverse stock split, cancellation of previously issued convertible notes, adding floor prices to remaining convertible amounts and future financings, and tighter reporting of share-count changes. Nasdaq nonetheless denied continued listing, which suggests the panel was not satisfied that the plan sufficiently addressed historical or ongoing concerns.

The company expects its securities to trade on the OTC Pink Current Market and aims over time to qualify for OTCQB or OTCQX. Actual trading liquidity, spreads, and investor participation will depend on how the market responds once the transition from Nasdaq to OTC Pink occurs and on any subsequent disclosures about execution of its capital structure and governance plans.

NASDAQ DELISTING

 

On August 22, 2025, the Company received notification from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”), notifying the Company that its securities will be delisted from the Nasdaq Capital Market and trading thereof will be suspended at the open of trading on August 26, 2025. The determination to delist the Company’s securities was a result of the Company’s violation of Nasdaq Listing Rules 5100, 5250(e)(2), 5550(a)(2) and 5810(c)(3)(A)(iii), the “Public Interest Concern”, “Listing of Additional Shares”, “Bid Price”, and “Low Priced Stocks” Rules.

 

As disclosed previously, the Company received Staff Delisting Determinations dated June 25, 2025 notifying the Company that Nasdaq had initiated the process of delisting the Company’s securities from the Nasdaq Capital Market as a result of the Company’s non-compliance with the foregoing listing rules, which the company timely appealed to the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “Panel”). At a hearing before the Panel on August 12, 2025, the Company presented a plan to regain and maintain compliance with the Public Interest Concern, Listing of Additional Shares, Bid Price, and Low Priced Stocks Rules, predicated, inter alia, on (i) reverse stock split to regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule and the Low Price Rule, (ii) the cancellation of the convertible notes previously issued, (iii) inclusion of a floor price provision on any remaining unconverted amount for convertible notes, (iv) adding a minimum floor price for any securities issued for any future financing transaction, and (v) covenanted to promptly reporting any changes in the number of outstanding shares. Nasdaq determined to deny the request of the Company to continue its listing on The Nasdaq Stock Market on August 22, 2025.

 

The Company expects its securities to trade on the OTC Pink Current Market for the time being, but will endeavor to qualify for trading on the OTCQB or OTCQX markets in due course.
