Item 3.01. Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

As previously disclosed, on February 4, 2026, the Company received a written notice (the “Notice”) from the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) indicating that the Nasdaq staff (the “Staff”) determined that the Company’s common stock failed to maintain a minimum bid price of $1.00 per share for 30 consecutive business days, in violation of Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Rule”). As a result of non-compliance with the Rule, the Staff determined to delist the Company’s securities (common stock (“AREB”) and publicly traded warrants (“AREBW”)) from The Nasdaq Capital Market at the opening of business on February 13, 2026, unless the Company was to request an appeal of the determination by February 11, 2026.

The Company’s board of directors originally chose not to request a hearing before an independent Nasdaq Hearings Panel; however, on February 11, 2026, after consultation with strategic advisors to the Company, the board of directors decided to request a hearing and appeal the Staff’s delisting determination. The Company filed its hearing request with Nasdaq prior to the 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time on February 11, 2026 deadline. The filing of the hearing request will result in a stay of any suspension or delisting action pending the conclusion of the hearing process.

This report contains forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, the timing of the hearing and the Company’s ability to appeal the delisting decision. Such statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, and actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. In particular, the hearing may be scheduled, and the panel may issue a decision, more quickly than expected based on the typical time periods in published Nasdaq guidance, which shorter timeline(s) may be unfavorable for the Company and the continued listing of the Company’s common stock on The Nasdaq Capital Market. Investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this report. The Company undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statement in this report, except as required by law.

Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

On February 10, 2026, holders of 80,000 shares of Series D Convertible Preferred Stock converted such shares into 400,000 shares of common stock.

On February 2, 2026, the Company effectuated a 1-for-20 reverse stock split. On February 11, 2026, in connection with the round lot share rounding associated with the reverse stock split, the Company issued 5,868,547 shares of common stock to CEDE & Co. for distribution to stockholders effected by the rounding.

The Company currently has 10,434,069 shares of common stock outstanding.

All of the above-described issuances (if any) were exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(a)(2), and/or Regulation D of the Securities Act as transactions not involving a public offering. With respect to each transaction listed above, no general solicitation was made by either the Company or any person acting on its behalf. All such securities issued pursuant to such exemptions are restricted securities as defined in Rule 144(a)(3) promulgated under the Securities Act, appropriate legends have been placed on the documents evidencing the securities, and may not be offered or sold absent registration or pursuant to an exemption therefrom.

On February 11, 2026, the Company issued a press release titled “American Rebel Holdings Announces Strategic Transition to OTC Markets and Confirms Board Decision Not to Appeal Nasdaq Delisting Determination.” A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
