Flag Ship Acquisition Corp Receives Nasdaq Notification of Non-Compliance with Listing Rules

NEW YORK, April 22, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Flag Ship Acquisition Corp (NASDAQ: FSHP) (the “Company”), a special purpose acquisition company, announced that on April 17, 2026, it received a letter from the Listing Qualifications Department of the Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) advising the Company that the Company does not comply with Nasdaq’s Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) for continued listing because the Company had not timely filed its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 (the “Form 10-K”). Nasdaq has informed the Company that it has until June 16, 2026 to submit a plan to regain compliance with respect to this delinquent report. If Nasdaq approves the Company’s plan, it has the discretion to grant the Company an extension of up to 180 calendar days from the due date of the Form 10-K (or until October 12, 2026) to regain compliance.

Nasdaq’s Listing Rules also require that the Company make a public announcement disclosing receipt of the notification letter by issuing a press release within four business days of the date of such notice. The Company is working diligently to complete the Form 10-K. This notification has no immediate effect on the listing of the Company’s securities on Nasdaq. There can be no assurance, however, that the Company will be able to regain compliance with the listing requirements discussed above or otherwise satisfy the other Nasdaq listing criteria.
