Material Transaction
The Company entered into an amendment to the operating agreement for JDI-Cumberland Inlet, LLC and a related Forced Sale Agreement with Jacoby Development Inc.

- The filing does not provide revenue, net income, operating cash flow, cash balances, debt balances, or margin information for the reported period.

Changes Versus Prior Comparable Period
The filing is event-driven and does not present comparative income statement or cash flow information. The principal change is the disposition of the Company’s 10% LLC interest in exchange for the secured and guaranteed promissory note.
Nasdaq Compliance, Outlook, and Risks
The Company previously received a Nasdaq deficiency notice because its stockholders’ equity was below the required threshold. It submitted a compliance plan and received an extension through February 24, 2025 to demonstrate compliance.
The Company believes it regained compliance as a result of the JDI-Cumberland transaction. Nasdaq will continue monitoring compliance. If the Company does not demonstrate compliance in its next periodic report, it may be subject to delisting.
The filing does not provide formal financial guidance. Key contingencies include collection of the promissory note, the value and enforceability of the pledged equity interest and guarantee, and the Company’s ability to maintain the required stockholders’ equity.
Important Facts to Verify
- Confirm the correct registrant and reporting date, because the supplied metadata references Renx Enterprises Corp. and February 11, 2024, while the filing identifies Safe and Green Development Corporation and February 11, 2025.
- Review the Amendment and Forced Sale Agreement for closing conditions, default provisions, collateral rights, and other transaction terms.
- Verify the accounting impact of the disposition and the resulting stockholders’ equity in the next periodic report.
- Confirm whether Nasdaq accepts the transaction as sufficient evidence of compliance and whether continued compliance is maintained.
- Assess the ability of JDI-Cumberland and Jacoby Development Inc. to pay the $4.5 million note when due on February 6, 2026.
