Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
On August 26, 2026, IP Strategy Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) received a notification letter from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) advising the Company that, because it has not yet filed its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2026 (the “Form 10-Q”), the Company is not currently in compliance 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 Nasdaq notification has no immediate effect on the listing of the Company’s common stock on Nasdaq. Under the Nasdaq Listing Rules, the Company has 60 calendar days from the date of the notification, or until October 26, 2026, to submit to Nasdaq a plan to regain compliance. If Nasdaq accepts the Company’s plan, Nasdaq may grant the Company an exception of up to 180 calendar days from the original due date of the Form 10-Q, or until February 22, 2027, to regain compliance. If Nasdaq does not accept the Company’s plan, the Company will have the opportunity to appeal that decision to a Nasdaq Hearings Panel.
The Company is diligently working to complete and file the Form 10-Q and intends to take the necessary steps to regain compliance with Nasdaq’s continued listing requirements in September 2026.
On August 28, 2026, the Company issued a press release announcing its receipt of the Nasdaq notification. A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference
Forward-Looking Statements

Words like “believe,” “intend,” “will,” and “would” or the negative thereof or other variations thereon or comparable terminology, are used to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain these words. Any such statements in this report that are not statements of historical fact may be deemed to be forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the Company’s expectations regarding its ability and timing to complete and file the Form 10-Q and regain compliance with Nasdaq’s continued listing requirements.
Although the Company believes that it is basing its expectations and beliefs on reasonable assumptions within the bounds of what is currently known about its business and operations, there can be no assurance that actual results will not differ materially from what the Company expects or believes. Some of the factors that could cause the Company’s actual results to differ materially from its expectations or beliefs are disclosed in the “Risk Factors” section, as well as other sections, of its reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, its subsequently filed Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K and other filings. All forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made and the Company undertakes no duty to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
