Reborn Coffee, Inc. (REBN) - Form 8-K Summary
Business Context and Reporting Period
This Current Report on Form 8-K was filed by Reborn Coffee, Inc., a Delaware corporation, on December 5, 2025, regarding events occurring on December 2, 2025. The Company's common stock trades on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol "REBN."
Key Financial Metrics
The filing does not provide specific revenue, profit, cash flow, margin, or debt figures. The report focuses exclusively on regulatory compliance status. The material financial metric disclosed is the Company's failure to maintain the required stockholders' equity of at least $2,500,000 under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1).
Material Changes and Delisting Notice
On December 2, 2025, the Company received a notification from Nasdaq scheduling its securities for delisting from The Nasdaq Capital Market. This action follows a prior warning issued on May 29, 2025, regarding non-compliance with the Equity Rule. The Company failed to regain compliance by the November 25, 2025 deadline. Consequently, trading of the Company's securities is scheduled to be suspended at the opening of business on December 11, 2025, and a Form 25-NSE will be filed to remove the securities from listing.
Outlook, Management Commentary, and Risks
The Company intends to appeal Nasdaq's determination to a Hearings Panel. Filing a hearing request will stay the suspension and the delisting filing pending the Panel's decision. To proceed, the Company must pay a non-refundable $20,000 fee and present a plan to regain compliance. Management explicitly states there is no assurance that Nasdaq will grant approval of the compliance plan or reverse the delisting determination. The filing includes standard forward-looking statement disclaimers regarding the uncertainty of future compliance and regulatory outcomes.
