This triggered an initial compliance period, which the company did not satisfy by the original deadline. Nasdaq subsequently granted an extended deadline to address the issue.

Extended Deadline Granted

The exchange provided LM Funding America with additional time to regain compliance, setting a new final deadline. This decision was based on the company’s market value of publicly held shares and its commitment to take corrective action, including the potential implementation of a reverse stock split. If the company fails to meet the new deadline, its stock could face delisting from the Nasdaq Market.

Reverse Stock Split Approved

At its June 16 annual meeting, LM Funding America’s shareholders approved a reverse stock split at a ratio of 1:25. The board of directors subsequently authorized the split, which is scheduled to take effect on July 13, 2026. Under the terms of the split, every 25 shares of common stock will be converted into one share.

The primary goal of this action is to increase the stock price to meet Nasdaq’s minimum bid price requirement.

Trading Adjustments Post-Split

The company’s new CUSIP number, 502074602, will apply to shares after the split. Any fractional shares resulting from the split will be rounded up to the nearest whole share.

Impact on Equity Instruments

The reverse stock split will adjust the terms of the company’s outstanding equity instruments, including stock options, warrants, and restricted stock units.
