Rhea-AI Filing Summary

XMax Inc. (XMAX) disclosed that Nasdaq notified the company on September 10, 2026 that it is not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d), which requires prior shareholder approval for certain discounted issuances of 20% or more of pre-transaction outstanding shares. The non-compliance arises from a December 19, 2025 private issuance of 1,187,500 shares at $4.21 per share and three additional discounted private placements in March and April 2026 totaling 8,500,000 shares (March 9, 2026), 1,958,000 shares (March 30, 2026) and 8,550,000 shares (April 24, 2026). These issuances, when aggregated, exceeded 20% of the company’s common stock and were priced below the “Minimum Price,” which is tied to the Net Official Closing Price, including a NOCP of $6.02 and a five-day average NOCP of $5.98 as of December 18, 2025. XMax has until October 26, 2026 to submit a compliance plan; Nasdaq may then grant up to 180 calendar days from the notification date to evidence compliance. The company states it intends to submit such a plan, and its common stock will continue trading on Nasdaq under the symbol XMAX during this compliance period.

Positive

  • None.

Negative

  • Nasdaq non-compliance notice: XMax Inc. is not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d) after issuing more than 20% of its common stock in discounted private placements without prior shareholder approval, creating a potential delisting risk if it cannot successfully regain compliance.

Filing Explained

If Nasdaq rejects XMax’s compliance plan, the company may request a hearing and appeal that decision to a Nasdaq Hearings Panel; the filing describes this as a future contingency.

Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d) regulatory
"indicating that the Company is not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d)"
Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d) is a stock-exchange rule that determines when a company must get shareholder approval before issuing new shares tied to conversions or exercises of existing convertible securities, options or warrants. It matters to investors because it controls potential dilution of their holdings and changes in voting power—think of it like a rule that decides whether a previously agreed‑upon coupon can be redeemed without asking the group again.
Minimum Price financial
"issuance of 20% or more of the pre-transaction shares outstanding at less than the Minimum Price"
The minimum price is the lowest allowable or acceptable price at which a security, share offering, product, or sale can be bought or sold. Think of it like the smallest tag on a store item that the seller will accept; for investors it sets a floor for entry or sale, affects potential returns and liquidity, and can influence demand by limiting purchases below that level.
Net Official Closing Price financial
"The Net Official Closing Price (“NOCP”) for the Company’s common stock was $6.02"
private placement transactions financial
"Subsequently, in March and April of 2026, the Company entered into five additional private placement transactions"
Sale of stocks, bonds, or other securities directly to a small group of selected investors rather than through a public stock offering; these deals use regulatory exemptions to avoid the full public-registration process. It matters to investors because private placements can change a company’s ownership, raise capital without broad-market scrutiny, and affect share dilution and future liquidity—think of it like a company selling a block of its shares to a few private buyers instead of putting them up for public auction.
Nasdaq Hearings Panel regulatory
"the Company will have the opportunity to request a hearing and appeal that decision to a Nasdaq Hearings Panel"
A Nasdaq hearings panel is a group of experts that reviews cases when a company's stock listing is at risk of being removed from the exchange. They evaluate whether the company has met certain standards and determine if it can keep trading on Nasdaq. This process matters to investors because it can affect a company's ability to raise money and maintain credibility in the market.

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

 

On September 10, 2026, XMAX, Inc. (the “Company”) received a notification letter (the “Notification Letter”) from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) indicating that the Company is not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d), which requires prior shareholder approval for transactions, other than public offerings, involving the issuance of 20% or more of the pre-transaction shares outstanding at less than the Minimum Price (as defined in Listing Rule 5635(d)(1)(A)).

 

As described in the Notification Letter, on December 19, 2025, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with two investors to issue 1,187,500 shares of common stock at an offering price of $4.21 per share (the “December Issuance”). The Net Official Closing Price (“NOCP”) for the Company’s common stock was $6.02 as of December 18, 2025, and the five-day average NOCP for the period then ended was $5.98. The December Issuance was priced at $4.21, which is less than the Minimum Price.

 

Subsequently, in March and April of 2026, the Company entered into five additional private placement transactions. Three of the five additional transactions, specifically 8,500,000 shares for March 9, 2026 transaction, 1,958,000 shares for March 30, 2026 transaction and 8,550,000 shares for April 24, 2026 transaction were issued at a price less than the Minimum Price (the “March and April Discounted Issuances”).

 

The December Issuance, aggregated with the March and April Discounted Issuances (the “Aggregated Issuance”), represents greater than 20% of the common stock outstanding and was priced below the Minimum Price, and the Company was required to obtain prior shareholder approval under Listing Rule 5635(d).

 

Under Nasdaq’s rules, the Company has 45 calendar days from the date of the Notification Letter, or until October 26, 2026, to submit a plan to regain compliance with Listing Rule 5635(d). If the Company’s plan is accepted, Nasdaq may grant the Company an extension of up to 180 calendar days from the date of the Notification Letter to evidence compliance. If the Company’s plan is not accepted, the Company will have the opportunity to request a hearing and appeal that decision to a Nasdaq Hearings Panel.

 

The Company intends to submit a plan to regain compliance within the required timeframe and to take all steps necessary to regain compliance with Listing Rule 5635(d).

 

The Notification Letter has no immediate effect on the listing or trading of the Company’s common stock on the Nasdaq Stock Market, and the Company’s common stock will continue to trade on the Nasdaq Stock Market under the symbol “XMAX” during the compliance period.
