Blink Charging Co. 8-K

What Happened
Blink Charging Co. (NASDAQ: BLNK) announced in an 8-K that on January 26, 2026 it received a deficiency notice from Nasdaq's Listing Qualifications Department because the company's closing bid price has been below the $1.00 minimum for the prior 30 consecutive business days. The notice does not remove the listing immediately; Nasdaq has given Blink a 180-calendar-day compliance period.

Key Details

• Notice date: January 26, 2026.
• Compliance period: 180 calendar days (until July 27, 2026) to regain a closing bid ≥ $1.00 for at least 10 consecutive business days.
• If not resolved by July 27, 2026, Blink may be eligible for a second 180-day period only if it meets market value of publicly held shares and other initial listing standards (except the minimum bid price).
• If delisted from The Nasdaq Capital Market, Blink expects its common stock would likely move to an OTC Markets tier; the company may appeal any delisting determination.

Why It Matters
A Nasdaq deficiency notice signals potential exchange delisting risk tied to the stock price. If Blink does not regain compliance, trading could move off Nasdaq to the OTC market, which can reduce liquidity, visibility, and institutional investment. The company says it will monitor prices and evaluate options to regain compliance, but there is no assurance it will do so within the required timeframe.
