Analysis · FJDI · Real Estate & Construction
The SPAC was told by Nasdaq on October 20 that its outstanding warrants are worth less than the $1 million minimum required under Listing Rule 5452(b)(C). Only the warrants (FJDIW) are covered by the notice; the Class A shares, units and rights are unaffected, so trading continues for now. To regain compliance, the company must submit a plan by December 4, 2026, and if Nasdaq accepts it, the company could get until April 18, 2027 to prove compliance. Should the plan be rejected, an appeal to a hearings panel is available. For a blank-check company, a warrant deficiency is a governance and listing-hygiene problem rather than an operating one, but it adds a visible regulatory overhang while the trust sits near its $10 reference level.
