SINGAPORE, Jan. 20, 2026 — Currenc Group Inc. (Nasdaq: CURR) (“Currenc” or the “Company”), a fintech pioneer that equips financial institutions around the globe with artificial intelligence (AI) solutions, today revealed that on January 12, 2026, it received a notification letter (the “Nasdaq Annual Meeting Deficiency Letter”) from the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Staff of The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”). The letter stated that since the Company had not yet conducted its annual shareholder meeting within twelve (12) months of its fiscal year end, it was out of compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rules 5620(a) and 5810(c)(2)(G), along with IM-5620. The Company made the Nasdaq Annual Meeting Deficiency Letter public on January 13, 2026. The letter does not immediately impact the listing or trading of the Company’s securities on the Nasdaq stock market.
The Company has forty-five (45) calendar days from January 12, 2026, to submit a plan to get back into compliance. The Company intends to consult with Nasdaq to determine if holding its annual meeting—currently set for February 25, 2026 (the “EGM”)—will bring it back into compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rules 5620(a) and 5810(c)(2)(G), and IM-5620, or if Nasdaq will need any further steps. Should Nasdaq approve the Company’s proposed plan and the EGM’s meeting date, Nasdaq may allow an exception of up to 180 calendar days from the fiscal year end (or until June 29, 2026) to achieve compliance.
