ContextLogic Inc. to Commence Trading on the OTC Markets and Delist from Nasdaq

OAKLAND, Calif., May 30, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ContextLogic Inc. (Nasdaq: LOGC) (“ContextLogic,” the “Company,” “we” or “our”) today announced its intention to voluntarily delist from The Nasdaq Global Market at the close of markets on June 2, 2025 and to begin trading on the OTCQB® Venture Market of the OTC Markets on June 3, 2025.

The Company is pleased to announce that the Company has been accepted for listing on the OTCQB® Venture Market of the OTC Markets (the “OTC Markets”) and that the Company’s Class A Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”) will commence trading on the OTC Markets on Tuesday, June 3, 2025 under the ticker symbol “LOGC”. Shareholders will not be required to exchange their share certificates or take any other action in connection with the OTC Markets listing as there will be no change in the trading symbol or CUSIP for the Common Stock.

The Company also announces that as a result of its listing on the OTC Markets, it intends to voluntarily delist its Common Stock from The Nasdaq Global Market (“Nasdaq”) and file a Form 25 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on or about June 9, 2025. As a result, the Company anticipates that the delisting of its Common Stock from Nasdaq will become effective 10 days after the filing, unless otherwise directed by Nasdaq.

As previously disclosed in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on March 28, 2025, the Company was notified by the Listing Qualifications Department (the “Staff”) of Nasdaq that the Staff believes the Company is a “public shell,” as that term is defined by Nasdaq under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5101, and therefore subject to delisting unless the Company requested a hearing before the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “Panel” and the notification from the Staff, (the “Notification”)). The Company disagreed with the Staff’s conclusion and timely requested a hearing before the Panel on April 1, 2025.

The hearing was held on May 8, 2025 at which the Company presented a comprehensive overview of its business and, more specifically, the Company’s efforts to maximize the value of its assets, including opportunities to invest in or acquire one or more operating businesses that provide opportunities for appreciation in value, and the Company requested the continued listing of its securities on Nasdaq.

After careful consideration, the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) has unanimously determined it is in the overall best interests of the Company to delist its Common Stock from Nasdaq.

The decision was influenced by several factors, including the Company’s evaluation of its ability to continue maximizing the value of its assets while also considering the advantages of remaining listed on Nasdaq versus the regulatory requirements, the time management must dedicate to compliance and reporting, and the costs involved in maintaining the listing. The Company’s strategy, its operations, and its ability to grow its business will not change as a result of the listing transfer to the OTC Markets. The Company believes that the transition to the OTC Markets will save expenses and should allow for a continued orderly trading market for its Common Stock.
