Pearl Holdings Acquisition Receives Nasdaq Non-Compliance Notice of Business Combination Pearl Holdings Acquisition Corp. (the Company") received a letter from the staff (the Staff") of the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (Nasdaq") dated as of December 16, 2024, as amended as of December 19, 2024, indicating that, as a result of the Company's failure to complete one or more business combinations by December 14, 2024, the effective date of the Company's IPO registration statement, the Company did not comply with the requirements of Nasdaq IM 5101-2, which requires that a special purpose acquisition company complete one or more business combinations within 36 months of the effectiveness of the its IPO registration statement. As a result, the Company's ordinary shares, units and warrants (the Securities") became subject to delisting. On December 23, 2024, Nasdaq suspended trading in the Securities and indicated that a Form 25-NSE will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which will remove the Securities from listing and registration on Nasdaq. Pursuant to Nasdaq's procedures, the Company may appeal the Staff's determination. However, the Staff may only reverse its delisting determination if it finds it made a factual error in applying Rule 5101-2 and that the Company never failed to satisfy the requirement set in Rule 5101-2. The Company does not intend to exercise its right to appeal. Some or all of the Securities may be quoted on an over-the-counter market following the suspension of trading on The Nasdaq Global Market and delisting. However, as a result of the suspension and delisting of the Securities from Nasdaq, the Company and the holders of the Securities will face significant material adverse consequences, including: the Company being less attractive to potential business combination targets and therefore making it more difficult for the Company to complete a business combination; a decreased ability to issue additional securities or obtain additional financing in the future; a limited availability of market quotations for the Securities, even if the Securities were to be quoted on an over-the-counter market; reduced liquidity and demand for the Securities, particularly when taking into account the exercise by the Company's public shareholders of redemption rights with respect to a large number of the Company's ordinary shares in connection with the Company's extension of time to complete a business combination; determination that the Company's ordinary shares are a penny stock" which will require brokers trading in the ordinary shares to adhere to more stringent rules and could result in a further reduced level of trading activity in the secondary trading market for the securities; greater difficulty and cost at being able to satisfy any applicable stock exchange's initial listing requirements for the post-business combination company; the Securities no longer qualifying as covered securities" under the NSMIA, meaning that sales of the Securities would be subject to regulation in each state in which that sale occurs, including in connection with our business combination, which may negatively impact our ability to consummate our initial business combination or to otherwise issue additional securities or obtain additional financing in the future and could negatively impact the ability of our security holders to trade, and result in further reduced liquidity and demand for, the Securities; and a limited amount of news and analyst coverage.
