2021年11月23日，美国加州洛杉矶 -- 总部位于美国加州的全球共享智能电动出行生态系统公司Faraday Future Intelligent Electric Inc. ("FF"或"公司") (NASDAQ交易代码：FFIE) 今天宣布，收到纳斯达克证券交易所（"NASDAQ"）2021年11月17日的信函 (The “Nasdaq Letter”），信函中表明FF违反了纳斯达克上市规则之5250 (c) (1) 条款。公司已有预期会收到该信函。由于公司延迟提交截至2021年9月30日的10-Q季度报表（the “Q3 Form 10-Q”），纳斯达克根据其标准程序，向FF发出了这一信函。在该信函中，纳斯达克方面告知FF将被允许在60个自然日内提交相关计划，以重新符合纳斯达克上市规则之5250 (c) (1)条款，且纳斯达克方面可给予FF一次例外, 从第三季度10-Q表格的提交到期日开始，FF有最多180个自然日完成以上行动，以重新遵守纳斯达克上市规则之5250 (c) (1)条款。纳斯达克信函进一步告知FF，FF将在2021年11月17日起的五个工作日内被列入不符合上市规定的纳斯达克公司名单。
FF此前于2021年11月15日向美国证券交易委员会提交了一份12b-25表格，披露公司董事会成立了由独立董事组成的特别委员会 (The “Special Committee”)，主动自查相关不实披露的指控，其中包括一份机构报告中发布的内容，该机构有专门做空上市公司股价并从中获利的历史。特别委员会已聘请外部独立律师和顾问对这些指控进行了独立审查。公司特别委员会将与独立律师和顾问不遗余力地协同工作，以尽快完成其审查。FF无法预计审查的持续时间、最终范围、结果或其对公司财务业绩的影响。
正如12b-25表格所指出的，FF正在努力实现在审查结束后尽快提交第三季度10-Q表格、8-K表格、公司2021年第三季度盈利报告及相关新闻稿件和S-1表格的修订注册声明的目标，但目前不能准确预测何时完成这些表格的准备和提交。FF将及时向纳斯达克上市资格部门提交一份使FF作为一家上市公司重新合规的计划。在这段时间内，以及在纳斯达克上市资格部门可能授予公司的延长期内，FF将继续保持在纳斯达克交易市场上市。在公司提交第三季度的10-Q表格后，公司将再次符合纳斯达克上市规则之5250(c)(1)条款。
