BOCA RATON, Fla., Aug. 27, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- FlexShopper, Inc. (Nasdaq: FPAY) today announced that it received a deficiency notification letter from the Listing Qualifications Staff of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC on August 21, 2025 (the “Notice”). The Notice indicated that FlexShopper does not comply with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) (the “Listing Rule”) for continued listing of its common stock as a result of its failure to timely file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2025 (the “Q2 2025 Form 10-Q”), as described more fully in FlexShopper’s Form 12b-25 Notification of Late Filing (the “Form 12b-25”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 15, 2025. The Listing Rule requires Nasdaq-listed companies to timely file all required periodic reports with the SEC.
Previously, the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Staff granted FlexShopper an exception until October 13, 2025 to file its delinquent Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 (the “2024 Form 10-K”) and its Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2025 (the “Q1 2025 Form 10-Q”). As a result, any additional Nasdaq exception to allow FlexShopper to regain compliance with all delinquent filings will be limited to a maximum of 180 calendar days from the due date of the Initial Delinquent Filing, or October 13, 2025. With this additional delinquency, FlexShopper must submit an update to its original plan to regain compliance with respect to the filing requirement.
As previously disclosed, the filing of the Q2 2025 Form 10-Q was delayed due to the matters described in the Form 12b-25, including allowing FlexShopper sufficient time to complete its customary accounting and internal control processes and procedures. While FlexShopper can provide no assurance as to their timing, it will continue to work diligently to complete and file the 2024 Form 10-K, the Q1 2025 Form 10-Q and the Q2 2025 Form 10-Q as soon as practicable.
