Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
As previously disclosed, on February 19, 2025, Nikola Corporation (the “Company”) was notified by the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) that Nasdaq will delist the Company’s common stock, $0.0001 par value per share. The trading of the Company’s common stock on Nasdaq was suspended at the opening of business on February 26, 2025.
On March 24, 2025, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the voluntarily delisting of the Company’s common stock from Nasdaq and deregistration under Section 12(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). On March 24, 2025, the Company delivered notice to Nasdaq that the Company intends to voluntarily delist its common stock from Nasdaq.
The Company expects to file a Form 25 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on or about April 3, 2025 to effect the voluntary delisting of the common stock under Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act, and the delisting will be effective on or about the opening of business on April 14, 2025, ten days after the filing of the Form 25. Following the effectiveness of the delisting, the Company intends to file a Form 15 with the SEC to suspend the Company’s Exchange Act reporting obligations.
