Toronto, Ontario, Oct. 28, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) —   Fort Technology Inc. (Nasdaq: FRTT, TSXV: FORT) (“Fort” or the “Company”), today announced that on October 13, 2026, it received a written notification (the “Notification”) from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) indicating that the Company is not in compliance with the minimum bid price requirement set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2).

Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) requires listed securities to maintain a minimum bid price of $1.00 per share. Based upon the closing bid price of the Company’s common shares for the last 30 consecutive business days, from August 31, 2026 through October 12, 2026, the Company no longer meets this requirement.

Pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company has been granted a 180-calendar day compliance period, or until April 12, 2027, to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement. To regain compliance, the closing bid price of the Company’s common shares must meet or exceed $1.00 per share for at least 10 consecutive business days during the 180-calendar day compliance period.

In the event the Company does not regain compliance by April 12, 2027, the Company may be eligible for an additional 180 calendar day compliance period if it meets the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other initial listing standards for the Nasdaq Capital Market, with the exception of the bid price requirement, and provides written notice to Nasdaq of its intention to cure the deficiency during the second compliance period, by effecting a reverse share split, if necessary.

The Notification has no immediate effect on the listing or trading of the Company’s common shares on the Nasdaq Capital Market, and the Company’s common shares will continue to be listed and traded on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “FRTT.”

The Notification relates solely to the Company’s listing on Nasdaq and does not affect the listing or trading of the Company’s common shares on the TSX Venture Exchange, where the Company’s common shares will continue to trade under the symbol “FORT.”

The Company intends to monitor the closing bid price of its common shares and will consider available options to regain compliance with the Nasdaq minimum bid price requirement within the prescribed compliance period. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement or will otherwise be in compliance with other Nasdaq listing criteria.
