Agroz Inc. Receives Nasdaq Notification Regarding Minimum Bid Price Deficiency

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia, Feb. 24, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Agroz Inc. (NASDAQ: AGRZ) ("Agroz" or the "Company"), an innovative, fully vertically integrated agricultural technology company designing, building, managing, and operating indoor Controlled Environment Agriculture vertical farms, today announced that it received a deficiency letter ("Deficiency Letter") from the Listing Qualifications Department (the "Staff") of The Nasdaq Capital Market ("Nasdaq") notifying the Company that, for the preceding 30 consecutive business days, the closing bid price for the Company's Ordinary Shares, par value $0.0001 per share (the "Ordinary Shares"), was below the minimum $1.00 per share requirement for continued listing on Nasdaq pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the "Bid Price Requirement").

The Company's receipt of this Deficiency Letter has no immediate effect on the Company's Nasdaq listing. In accordance with Nasdaq rules, the Company has been provided an initial period of 180 calendar days, or until August 17, 2026 (the "Compliance Date", and such 180 day period, the "Compliance Period"), to regain compliance with the Bid Price Requirement. If at any time during the Compliance Period the closing bid price of the Ordinary Shares is at least $1 for a minimum of ten consecutive business days, Nasdaq will provide the Company with written confirmation of compliance and thismatter will be closed.

If the Company does not regain compliance during the Compliance Period, the Company may be eligible for an extension of an additional 180 calendar days, provided that the Company meets the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other initial listing standards for Nasdaq except for the Bid Price Requirement, and provide a written notice of its intention to cure the deficiency during the second compliance period, by effecting a reverse stock split, if necessary. If the Company chooses to implement a reverse stock split, it must complete such split no later than ten (10) business days prior to the Compliance Date. If it appears to the Staff that the Company will not be able to cure its deficiency, or if the Company is otherwise not eligible, Nasdaq will notify the Company of its determination to delist the Company's Ordinary Shares, at which point the Company will have an opportunity to appeal the delisting determination to a Hearings Panel.

The Company intends to monitor the closing bid price of the Common Shares and may, if appropriate, consider available options to regain compliance with the Bid Price Requirement.
