Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

 

On August 22, 2023, Southport Acquisition Corporation (the “Company”) received a notice from the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) indicating that the Company is not in compliance with the NYSE’s continued listing requirements under the timely filing criteria set forth in Section 802.01E of the NYSE Listed Company Manual since the Company did not file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2023 (the “Form 10-Q”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on or before August 21, 2023, the extended period provided for the filing under Rule 12b-25(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).

 

The NYSE informed the Company that, under the NYSE’s rules, the Company can regain compliance with the NYSE’s continued listing requirements by filing the Form 10-Q with the SEC at any time prior to February 21, 2024.

 

As previously reported by the Company in its Form 12b-25 filed with the SEC on August 15, 2023, as amended on August 21, 2023, the Company requires additional time to complete the Form 10-Q. The Company is continuing its efforts to file the Form 10-Q and expects to file such report as soon as reasonably practicable. The notice has no immediate effect on the listing of the Company’s securities on the NYSE. There can be no assurance, however, that the Company will be able to regain compliance with the listing standards discussed above.

On September 6, 2023, the Company issued a press release announcing the receipt of the notice of non-compliance from the NYSE. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

 

The information contained in this Item 7.01, including in Exhibit 99.1 attached hereto, is “furnished” and not “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Exchange Act or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section. Such information shall not be incorporated by reference in another filing under the Exchange Act or the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except to the extent such other filing specifically incorporates such information by reference.
