Project Energy Reimagined Acquisition Corp. Receives Expected Notice from Nasdaq Regarding Delayed Quarterly Report

MENLO PARK, Calif., Aug. 24, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Project Energy Reimagined Acquisition Corp. (Nasdaq: PEGR) (the "Company") today announced that it received a notice (the "Notice") from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC ("Nasdaq") indicating that the Company is not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) (the "Rule") due to a delay in filing its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2023 (the "Form 10-Q") with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). The Rule requires listed companies to timely file all required periodic financial reports with the SEC. The Notice is only a notification of deficiency, not of imminent delisting, and has no current effect on the listing or trading of the Company's securities on the Nasdaq Global Market.

The Notice states that the Company has 60 calendar days to submit a plan to regain compliance with the Rule. If Nasdaq accepts the Company's plan, then Nasdaq may grant an exception of up to 180 calendar days from the due date of the Form 10-Q, or until February 12, 2024, to regain compliance. If Nasdaq does not accept the Company's plan, the Company will have the opportunity to appeal the decision to a Nasdaq Hearings Panel.

As the Company reported in its Form 12b-25 filed with the SEC on August 15, 2023, additional time is needed for the Company to complete the Form 10-Q and permit the Company's independent registered public accounting firm to complete its review. The Company is working diligently to complete the Form 10-Q as soon as possible and currently expects to file the Form 10-Q with the SEC prior to the compliance plan submission deadline.
