• Nasdaq Deficiency Notice Received

  Expensify received an official letter from Nasdaq on April 17, 2026, notifying the company that its Class A common stock has traded below the minimum $1.00 bid price for 30 consecutive business days, violating Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(a)(1).

• 180-Day Compliance Period

  The company has 180 calendar days, until October 14, 2026, to regain compliance. To do so, its stock must close at or above $1.00 per share for a minimum of ten consecutive business days.

• Potential Reverse Stock Split

  Shareholders will vote at the Annual Meeting on May 22, 2026, on a proposal to authorize a reverse stock split (1-for-15, 1-for-20, or 1-for-25) as a potential measure to regain compliance. This follows the definitive proxy filing on April 10, 2026, which outlined the proposal.

• No Immediate Delisting Impact

  The deficiency letter has no immediate effect on the listing of Expensify's Class A common stock, which will continue to trade on The Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol 'EXFY' at this time.

This 8-K confirms a critical development for Expensify, as it officially notifies investors of the company's non-compliance with Nasdaq's minimum bid price rule. While the company previously disclosed a plan to seek shareholder approval for a reverse stock split in its DEF 14A filing on April 10, 2026, this filing provides the concrete timeline and consequences of the deficiency. Failure to regain compliance by October 14, 2026, could lead to a transfer to the Nasdaq Capital Market or, ultimately, delisting, which would severely impact the stock's liquidity and institutional investor appeal. Investors should closely monitor the stock's price performance and the outcome of the upcoming shareholder vote on the reverse stock split, as this event introduces significant uncertainty regarding the company's continued listing on a major exchange.
