Item 3.01. Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
On September 21, 2026, Netcapital Inc. (the “Company”) received a letter (the “Notice”) from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that, because the Company has not yet filed its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended July 31, 2026 (the “Form 10-Q”), and remains delinquent in filing its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2026 (the “Form 10-K”), the Company does not comply with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1), which requires listed companies to timely file all required periodic financial reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).
As previously disclosed in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on August 27, 2026, the Company received a letter from Nasdaq on August 24, 2026 relating to its failure to timely file the Form 10-K. Pursuant to that letter, the Company has until October 23, 2026 to submit to Nasdaq a plan to regain compliance with respect to both the Form 10-K and the Form 10-Q. If Nasdaq accepts the Company’s plan, Nasdaq may grant the Company an exception of up to 180 calendar days from the due date of the Form 10-K, or until February 9, 2027, to regain compliance. If Nasdaq does not accept the Company’s plan, the Company will have the opportunity to appeal that determination to a Nasdaq Hearings Panel.
The Notice has no immediate effect on the listing or trading of the Company’s common stock, which will continue to trade on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “NCPL,” subject to the Company’s continued compliance with Nasdaq’s other continued listing requirements.
The Company intends to submit a plan to regain compliance to Nasdaq within the required timeframe and intends to file the Form 10-K and the Form 10-Q as soon as practicable. However, there can be no assurance that Nasdaq will accept the Company’s plan, that the Company will be able to regain compliance within any exception period granted by Nasdaq, or that the Company will otherwise maintain compliance with Nasdaq’s continued listing requirements.
On September 25, 2026, the Company issued a press release announcing its receipt of the Notice, as required by Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(b). A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
Forward-Looking Statements

These statements are based on management’s current expectations and are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially, including the Company’s ability to complete the required audit and review of its financial statements, the availability of financing, Nasdaq’s acceptance of the Company’s plan, and the other risks described in the Company’s filings with the SEC.
