As previously disclosed in the Notification of Late Filing on Form 12b-25 filed on May 15, 2023 by Liberty Resources Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), with the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Company determined that it required additional time to complete its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2023 (the “Q1 10-Q”) within the prescribed time period and expected to receive notice from the Listing Qualifications Department of The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC (“NASDAQ”) that the Company is not in compliance with NASDAQ Listing Rule 5250(c)(1). The Company received such notice (the “Letter”) on May 24, 2023, which has no immediate effect on the listing or trading of the Company’s common stock on the NASDAQ Global Select Market. Pursuant to the Letter, by July, 23 2023 (60 calendar days of the date of Letter) the Company is required to submit a plan to regain compliance with NASDAQ’s filing requirements for continued listing, upon acceptance of which NASDAQ may grant an extension of up to 180 days for the Company to regain compliance with NASDAQ’s filing requirements for continued listing. The Company anticipates that it will file the Q1 10-Q prior to July 23, 2023, eliminating the applicability of submission a formal plan to regain compliance.
A press release dated May 30, 2023, disclosing the Company’s receipt of the Compliance Letter is attached as Exhibit 99.1.
