LAFAYETTE, CO / ACCESSWIRE / November 27, 2024 / urban-gro, Inc. (NASDAQ:UGRO) ("urban-gro" or the "Company"), an integrated professional services and Design-Build firm offering solutions to the Controlled Environment Agriculture ("CEA") and other commercial sectors, today announced that the Company received a notice (the "Notice) from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC ("Nasdaq") on September 21, 2024, stating that because the Company had not yet filed its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2024 (the "Form 10-Q"), the Company continues to not be in compliance with Nasdaq listing Rule 5250(c)(1), which requires listed companies to timely file all required periodic financial reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

This notification has no immediate effect on the listing of the Company's common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market.

As disclosed in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company on August 14, 2024, the Company's audit committee, in consultation with the Company's independent public accounting firm, concluded that, as a result of inadvertent errors in the accounting for deferred tax liabilities associated with historical share-purchase acquisitions made by the Company, it is appropriate to restate the Company's previously issued financial statements as of and for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2023 and condensed consolidated interim financial statements as of and for the fiscal periods ended March 31, 2022, June 30, 2022, September 30, 2022, March 31, 2023, June 30, 2023, September 30, 2023, and March 31, 2024 in a comprehensive amended Annual Report on Form 10-K (the "Amended Form 10-K") for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 with expanded financial information and other disclosures in lieu of filing separate amended annual and quarterly reports for the affected periods during the fiscal years ended December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2023 and in an amended Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2024 (the "Amended Form 10-Q"). Given the scope of the process for preparing the Amended Form 10-K and Amended Form 10-Q, the Company was unable to complete and file the Form 10-Q by the required due date of November 14, 2024. On November 15, 2024, the Company filed a Form 12b-25 Notification of Late Filing with the SEC related to the Form 10-Q.

On September 27, 2024, the Company submitted a plan to regain compliance with Rule 5250(c)(1) with Nasdaq. On November 8, 2024, Nasdaq notified the Company that the Company must file all of its delinquent filings, including the Form 15, on or before January 31, 2025. If the Company does not regain compliance by that date, Nasdaq would provide written notification of delisting of the Company's common stock, and the Company would have the opportunity to appeal the delisting determination to a hearings panel.
