SYNLOGIC, INC. 8-K/A

What Happened Synlogic, Inc. (SYBX) filed an amended Form 8-K on January 29, 2026 reporting that trading of its common stock was suspended and the shares have been delisted from the Nasdaq. Following that suspension and delisting, the company states it believes it is a "public shell" under Nasdaq rules and expects and plans for its common stock to be quoted on the OTCQB market.

Key Details

• Filing: Form 8-K/A dated January 29, 2026.
• Exchange action: Trading suspended and shares delisted from Nasdaq (filing notes these events occurred prior to this report; no new reinstatement on Nasdaq reported).
• Company status: Synlogic believes it qualifies as a “public shell” under Nasdaq rules.
• Next steps: Company expects and plans for its common stock to be quoted on the OTCQB.
• Signature: Report signed by Mary Beth Dooley, Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer.
• Forward-looking statements: The filing includes standard cautions that plans and expectations are subject to risks and may change.

Why It Matters Delisting and suspension mean Synlogic’s shares will no longer trade on Nasdaq and the company intends to move quotation to the OTCQB, a different market with lower listing standards and typically less liquidity and visibility. The company’s identification as a “public shell” is a formal status under Nasdaq rules that can affect investor perceptions and may influence the company’s ability to pursue certain transactions. Investors should note the company’s forward-looking caution that plans are subject to change and review Synlogic’s SEC filings for additional risk factors and updates.
