What Happened
Oak Woods Acquisition Corp (OAKU) filed an 8-K (Item 3.01) disclosing that Nasdaq's Listing Qualifications Staff determined to delist the company's securities. The company received the delisting determination on February 5, 2026, timely requested a hearing to appeal, and on February 17, 2026 was notified that a hearing before the Nasdaq Hearings Panel is scheduled for March 24, 2026 at 12:00 p.m. Eastern Time (to be held by video conference). OAKU says it will present a plan to comply with Nasdaq’s listing requirements, including annual meeting and round-lot holder obligations.
