Item 3.01. Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
As previously disclosed, IT Tech Packaging, Inc. (the “Company”) received notice from NYSE Regulation that the Company is not in compliance with the continued listing standards of NYSE American LLC (“NYSE American” or the “Exchange”) as a result of its failure to timely file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 (the “Form 10-K”), and the Company subsequently failed to timely file its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2026 and June 30, 2026 (together with the Form 10-K, the “Delayed Filings”). Accordingly, the Company is not in compliance with Sections 134 and 1101 of the NYSE American Company Guide (the “Company Guide”) and is subject to the procedures set forth in Section 1007 of the Company Guide.
Under Section 1007 of the Company Guide, a company that is unable to cure a filing delinquency within the initial six-month period of the maximum 12-month cure period is required to submit an extension request to the Exchange. On October 1, 2026, the Company submitted an extension request to NYSE Regulation, requesting additional time to regain compliance with the NYSE American continued listing standards. On October 7, 2026, the Company received a letter (the “Extension Notice”) from NYSE Regulation informing the Company that NYSE Regulation had accepted the extension request and granted the Company a plan period through April 15, 2027 (the “New Cure Deadline”) to complete the Delayed Filings and any subsequently delayed filings with the SEC.
NYSE Regulation staff will review the Company periodically for compliance with adherence to the milestones in the plan. If the Company does not make progress consistent with the plan during the plan period, or if the Company does not complete the Delayed Filings and any subsequently delayed filings with the SEC by the end of the maximum 12-month cure period on April 15, 2027, Exchange staff will initiate delisting proceedings as appropriate. The Company may appeal a staff delisting determination in accordance with Section 1010 and Part 12 of the Company Guide.
The Company’s common stock will continue to be listed and traded on NYSE American during the plan period pursuant to the extension, subject to the Company’s compliance with the plan and other applicable continued listing requirements, and will continue to bear a late filer (“.LF”) indicator until the filing delinquency is cured. The Company is working diligently to complete the Delayed Filings and currently expects to file them on or before the New Cure Deadline; however, there can be no assurance that the Delayed Filings will be completed within such period or that the Company will regain compliance with the NYSE American continued listing standards.
On October 9, 2026, as required by Sections 402 and 1009(e) of the Company Guide, the Company issued a press release announcing that it is not in compliance with the NYSE American continued listing standards and that its listing is being continued pursuant to an extension, and disclosing the New Cure Deadline. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
