Event Summary

Emproof, a Malaysia-based beauty and personal care company, received a Staff Delisting Determination from Nasdaq on July 16, 2026, notifying the company that its securities will be delisted from the Nasdaq Stock Market effective July 27, 2026, unless an appeal is filed by July 23, 2026. The delisting is based on Nasdaq's discretionary authority under Listing Rule IM-5101-4, following a temporary trading suspension by the United States — United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on October 8, 2025, due to potential manipulation via social media recommendations. Nasdaq also cited the company's delay in filing Form 20-F for fiscal year 2025 as an independent basis for delisting. The company has not been found to have engaged in wrongdoing and stated that the delisting does not affect its business operations. Trading has been halted since October 23, 2025, and the securities may become eligible for over-the-counter trading after removal from Nasdaq.
