MCLEAN, Va. - Primis Financial Corp. (NASDAQ: FRST), a bank holding company, has received a delinquency notification from Nasdaq due to its failure to file required financial reports on time. The notice, dated May 16, 2024, states that Primis did not meet the deadline for its quarterly report for the period ending March 31, 2024, nor its annual report for the year ending December 31, 2023, thus breaching Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1).

The company had previously acknowledged its delay in filing these reports, citing the need for additional time to complete a restatement of certain financial statements and to undergo a "pre-clearance" process with the SEC's Office of the Chief Accountant.

Primis Financial plans to submit a compliance plan by June 3, 2024, as stipulated by an initial delinquency notice received earlier. If Nasdaq accepts the plan, Primis may be granted until September 30, 2024, to file its overdue annual report.

Despite the notification, there is no immediate impact on the trading of Primis' securities on the Nasdaq stock market. The company continues to work towards completing and filing its annual and quarterly reports as promptly as possible.

Primis Financial, headquartered in McLean, Virginia, reported having $3.9 billion in total assets, $3.2 billion in total loans, and $3.3 billion in total deposits as of March 31, 2024. It operates through twenty-four full-service branches in Virginia and Maryland, in addition to its online and mobile banking services.

This news is based on a press release statement from Primis Financial Corp. and reflects the company's current situation regarding its compliance with Nasdaq's listing requirements.
