Form 8-K Filing Regarding Nasdaq Listing Compliance

Aeries Technology, Inc. received a notice from Nasdaq on March 31, 2026, indicating non-compliance with the minimum bid price requirement. This non-compliance could lead to the delisting of the company's securities from Nasdaq. The company had previously been notified of this issue on September 30, 2025, and had a grace period that expired on March 30, 2026, during which it failed to regain compliance. Aeries Technology, Inc. is not eligible for an extended grace period due to not meeting the minimum stockholders' equity requirement. The company intends to request a hearing before the Nasdaq Hearings Panel to discuss the potential delisting and is exploring all available options. However, there is no guarantee that the Panel will allow the company to continue its listing or that compliance with listing criteria will be achieved within any granted extension period.
