Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
On May 1, 2026, New Fortress Energy Inc. (the “Company”) received written notice (the “Notice”) from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that, based on the closing bid price of the Company’s Class A common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), for the last 30 consecutive trading days, the Company no longer complies with the minimum bid price requirement for continued listing on The Nasdaq Global Market. Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(a)(1) requires listed securities to maintain a minimum bid price of $1.00 per share (the “Minimum Bid Price Requirement”), and Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A) provides that a failure to meet the Minimum Bid Price Requirement exists if the deficiency continues for a period of 30 consecutive trading days.
The Notice has no immediate effect on the listing of the Common Stock on Nasdaq. Pursuant to the Nasdaq Listing Rules, the Company has been provided an initial compliance period of 180 calendar days to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. To regain compliance, the closing bid price of the Common Stock must be at least $1.00 per share for a minimum of 10 consecutive trading days prior to October 28, 2026, and the Company must otherwise satisfy Nasdaq’s requirements for continued listing. If the Company does not regain compliance within the compliance period(s), including any extensions that may be granted by Nasdaq, the Common Stock will be subject to delisting.
The Company intends to actively monitor the closing bid price of its Common Stock and evaluate all available options to regain compliance with the applicable Nasdaq listing rules. To that end, the Company intends to seek stockholder approval for the implementation of a reverse split of the Company’s outstanding common stock. Although the Company is taking definitive steps to regain compliance with the applicable rules, there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in its effort to regain compliance with the Nasdaq listing rules.
