Other Events.
As previously disclosed, on April 17, 2026 and May 21, 2026, Atlantic American Corporation (the “Company”) received
notices from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) stating that the Company is not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) (the “Rule”), which requires listed companies to timely file all required periodic financial reports with the
Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company is not in compliance with the Rule due to its delay in filing its Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 (the “Form 10-K”) and Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2026 (the “Form 10-Q”
and, together with the Form 10-K, the “Delinquent Reports”). The Nasdaq notices provided the Company until June 16, 2026 to submit to Nasdaq a plan to regain compliance with the Rule.
Following the Company’s timely submission of a compliance plan, Nasdaq informed the Company that it has been granted
an extension of 180 days from the original due date of the Form 10-K, or until October 12, 2026, to regain compliance with the Rule.
The Company continues to work diligently to file the Delinquent Reports as promptly as practicable. If the Company is
unable to regain compliance with the Rule by October 12, 2026, Nasdaq will notify the Company that its common stock will be delisted. If that were to occur, the Company may appeal such determination to a Nasdaq Hearings Panel.
Forward-Looking Statements
Except for historical information contained herein, this Current Report on Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements, including
statements regarding the Company’s ability to file the Delinquent Reports by October 12, 2026, to regain compliance with Nasdaq’s listing rules and to maintain the listing of the Company’s common stock. These forward-looking statements involve a
number of risks and uncertainties and actual results could differ materially from those indicated by such forward-looking statements due to a number of factors, including the results of the Company’s financial reporting procedures and those factors
discussed in reports that the Company files from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission. In addition, forward-looking statements reflect the Company’s expectations as of the date hereof. The Company undertakes no obligation to
update or revise any forward-looking statements contained herein, except as may be required by law. Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed upon these forward-looking statements.
SIGNATURES
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be
signed on its behalf by the undersigned, hereunto duly authorized.
