This filing details the formal notification from Nasdaq regarding TDH Holdings' non-compliance with listing rules for board independence and audit committee composition. This deficiency stems directly from the resignation of an independent director on March 11, 2026, which was previously disclosed. While the company has a cure period until March 11, 2027, or earlier, to appoint a new independent director, this notice highlights a significant corporate governance issue that could ultimately impact the company's listing status if not resolved. Investors should monitor the company's progress in appointing a new independent director to regain compliance.
