In This Article:

MIAMI BEACH, FL, Aug. 06, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Arogo Capital Acquisition Corp. (“Arogo” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: AOGO/AOGOU/AOGOW), a special purpose acquisition company, today announced that it received a notice (the “Notice”) from the Listing Qualifications Department of the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) on July 31, 2024, notifying the Company has not regained compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(b)(2)(A), requiring the Company to maintain a Market Value of Listed Securities of at least $50 million, and cited the Company’s failure to comply with Nasdaq’s Listing Rule 5450(a)(2), which requires the Company to have at least 400 total holders, as additional basis for delisting the Company’s securities from Nasdaq. The Notice provides that the Company has until 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time on August 7, 2024 (the “Appeal Deadline”), to appeal the Listing Qualification Department’s determination.

Pursuant to the Notice, unless the Company timely requests a hearing from the Nasdaq Hearing Panel (the “Panel”), the Company’s securities will be subject to suspension and delisting from the Nasdaq Global Market at the opening of business on August 7, 2024 and a Form 25-NSE will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which will remove the Company’s securities from listing on Nasdaq. The Company paid the required $20,000 fee and on August 6, 2024, submitted its timely request for a hearing before the Panel to appeal the Listing Qualification Department’s determination, as well as a request to stay the suspension of its securities pending the hearing date, under the procedures set forth in the Nasdaq Listing Rule 5800 Series. The appeal and request for hearing were filed before the Appeal Deadline, and accordingly the Company expects that the suspension of the Company’s securities will automatically be stayed until the Panel makes a determination. No assurances can be provided that the Company will obtain a favorable decision from the Panel, and/or that the Company will be able to regain or maintain compliance with the Nasdaq listing rules and continue the listing of its securities on Nasdaq.
