Fisker Announces Receipt of Notice of Late Filing from NYSE

LOS ANGELES , November 20 /Businesswire/ - Fisker Inc. (NYSE: FSR) ("Fisker"), driven by a mission to create the world's most emotional and sustainable electric vehicles, today announced that it received a notice from the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) on November 16, 2023 indicating that the Company is not in compliance with Section 802.01E of the NYSE Listed Company Manual as a result of its failure to timely file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 (the “Form 10-Q”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

The NYSE informed the Company that, under NYSE rules, the Company will have six months from November 14, 2023 to file the Form 10-Q with the SEC. The Company can regain compliance with the NYSE listing standards at any time prior to that date by filing its Form 10-Q. If the Company fails to file the Form 10-Q before the NYSE’s compliance deadline, the NYSE may grant, at its sole discretion, an extension of up to six additional months for the Company to regain compliance, depending on the specific circumstances. The notice from the NYSE also notes that the NYSE may nevertheless commence delisting proceedings at any time if it deems that the circumstances warrant.

On November 13, 2023, the Company filed a Notification of Late Filing on Form 12b-25 (the “Form 12b-25”), indicating that the filing of its Form 10-Q would be delayed. Although the Company has dedicated significant resources to the completion of finalizing its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures for inclusion in the Form 10-Q, the Company was unable to file the Form 10-Q prior to November 14, 2023, the extension period provided by the 12b-25. Additional time has been needed by the Company to complete its preparation of the financial statements included in the Form 10-Q. The Company is working diligently to ensure appropriate disclosures are made in the Form 10-Q and expects to file the Form 10-Q within the next few days.
