Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
On March 25, 2024, the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) notified Fisker Inc. (the “Company” or “Fisker”) that the NYSE had determined to (A) immediately suspend trading in the Company’s Class A common stock, par value $0.00001 per share (the “Class A Common Stock”), due to “abnormally low” trading price levels pursuant to Section 802.01D of the NYSE Listed Company Manual, and (B) commence proceedings to delist the Class A Common Stock. A delisting of our Class A Common Stock will trigger a requirement to offer to repurchase our unsecured 2.50% convertible notes due 2026 (the “2026 Notes”) and will cause an event of default under our senior secured convertible notes due 2025 (the “2025 Notes”), which would permit the holders of the 2025 Notes to accelerate such notes and make them immediately payable in full. We do not currently have sufficient cash reserves or financing sources sufficient to satisfy all amounts due under the 2026 Notes or the 2025 Notes, and as a result, such events could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
The Company expects that its Class A Common Stock will be quoted on the OTC Pink platform or another market operated by OTC Markets Group Inc. (the “OTC”). The OTC is a significantly more limited market than the NYSE, and quotation on the OTC will result in a less liquid market for existing and potential holders of the Class A Common Stock to trade the Class A Common Stock and could further depress the trading price of the Class A Common Stock. The Company can provide no assurance that its Class A Common Stock will trade or continue to trade on this market, whether broker-dealers will provide and continue to provide public quotes of the Class A Common Stock on this market, or whether the trading volume of the Class A Common Stock will be sufficient to provide for an efficient trading market.
