Skillz Receives NYSE Notice Regarding Late Form 10-K Filing
April 08 2025 - 4:05PM
Business Wire
Skillz Inc. (NYSE: SKLZ) (the “Company”), the leading games
platform bringing fair competition to players worldwide, today
announced that, on April 2, 2025, it received a notice (the “NYSE
Notice”) from the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) that the
Company is not in compliance with the NYSE’s continued listing
requirements under the timely filing criteria established in
Section 802.01 E of the NYSE Listed Company Manual, because the
Company has not timely filed its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 (the “Form 10-K”) with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).
The NYSE Notice has no immediate effect on the listing of the
Company’s common stock on the NYSE. The NYSE Notice informed the
Company that, under NYSE rules, the Company has six months from
March 17, 2025 to regain compliance with the NYSE listing standards
by filing the Form 10-K with the SEC. The NYSE further noted that,
if the Company fails to file the Form 10-K within the six-month
period, the NYSE may grant, at its sole discretion, an extension of
up to six additional months for the Company to regain compliance,
depending on the specific circumstances. The NYSE Notice also notes
that the NYSE may nevertheless commence delisting proceedings at
any time if it deems that the circumstances warrant.
As previously reported in the Company’s Notification of Late
Filing on Form 12b-25 filed with the SEC on March 17, 2025 (the
“Form 12b-25”), the Company was unable to file the Form 10-K within
the prescribed period because the Company requires more time to
complete the procedures relating to its year-end reporting process.
Subsequent to filing the Form 12b-25, the Company continued to
dedicate significant resources to the completion of such procedures
but was unable to file the Form 10-K by April 1, 2025, the end of
the extension period provided by the Form 12b-25. The Company
requires additional time to complete such procedures.
The Company is working diligently to complete the necessary work
to file the Form 10-K as soon as practicable and currently expects
to file the Form 10-K within the six-month period granted by the
NYSE Notice; however, there can be no assurance that the Form 10-K
will be filed within such period.
