**Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.**

On April 22, 2026, SHF Holdings, Inc. (the "Company") received a letter from the listing qualifications department staff of The Nasdaq Stock Market ("Nasdaq") notifying the Company that for the last 30 consecutive business days the Company did not maintain a minimum closing bid price of $1.00 per share for its Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the "Common Stock"), as required by Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5550(a)(2).

The notice has no immediate effect on the listing of the Company's Common Stock or warrants, and the Company's Common Stock and warrants continue to trade on Nasdaq under the symbols "SHFS" and "SHFSW," respectively. Pursuant to Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company was provided with a compliance period of 180 calendar days, or until October 19, 2026, to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement. The notice states that to regain compliance the closing bid price of the Company's Common Stock must meet or exceed $1.00 for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days.

If the Company does not regain compliance by October 19, 2026, the Company may be eligible for a second compliance period for up to an additional 180 days. In connection with any extension period, if it appears that the Company will not be able to regain compliance with Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5550(a)(2), or if the Company is not otherwise eligible, the Nasdaq staff will provide notice to the Company that its securities will be subject to delisting. At that time, the Company may appeal any such delisting determination to a Hearings Panel.

The Company intends to actively monitor the bid price and may evaluate other available options to resolve the deficiency and regain compliance with the Nasdaq Marketplace Rules. While the Company is exercising diligent efforts to maintain the listing of its Common Stock and warrants on Nasdaq, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to regain or maintain compliance with the foregoing or other Nasdaq listing standards.

**Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Principal Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Principal Officers.**

 

*Sundie Seefried*

 

On April 20, 2026, Sundie Seefried tendered her resignation as a member of the Board of Directors (the "Board") of the Company, effective immediately. Ms. Seefried's departure is not the result of any disagreement with the Company on any matter relating to its operations, policies or practices.

*Tyler Klimas*

 

On April 22, 2026, the Board appointed Tyler Klimas as a Class III director, effective immediately, in connection with Ms. Seefried's resignation. At this time, Mr. Klimas has not been appointed to any Board committees.

Mr. Klimas, age 40, brings extensive experience in cannabis regulation, public policy and industry advisory fields. He has served as the founder of Leaf Street Strategies, a consulting firm focused on market strategy, regulatory engagement, issue advocacy and public relations in cannabis and hemp, since December 2023. Prior to this, Mr. Klimas served as executive director of the Nevada Cannabis Compliance Board from October 2019 to December 2023, where he led the agency's creation and oversight of Nevada's medical and adult-use cannabis markets. He is also a co-founder of the Cannabis Regulators Association (CANNRA), a nonprofit organization of chief cannabis regulators spanning more than 45 U.S. states and territories, Canada and the Netherlands. Mr. Klimas earned a bachelor's degree in political science from the University of Nevada, Las Vegas.

Mr. Klimas will receive compensation for his Board and committee service in accordance with the Company's outside director compensation program as previously described in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, prorated for any partial years of service.

There is no family relationship between Mr. Klimas and any other executive officer or director of the Company. There are no transactions in which Mr. Klimas has an interest requiring disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K. There is no arrangement or understanding between Mr. Klimas and any other persons pursuant to which he was selected as a director.

*Sean Tonner*

 

On April 22, 2026, the Board appointed Sean Tonner as a Class II director, effective immediately, in connection with the Board Increase (as defined below). At this time, Mr. Tonner has not been appointed to any Board committees.

Mr. Tonner, age 55, has served as a partner at Fulcrum Group since December 2017 and is a seasoned strategic communications and public affairs leader. He has advised governments and corporations globally and served in senior staff roles for Presidents, Prime Ministers and Governors. His experience includes high-profile political campaigns, global reputation management for major brands and leadership roles across Colorado business and civic organizations. He is also a U.S. Army veteran and was awarded the Army Commendation Medal for Valor during Desert Storm. Mr. Tonner earned a bachelor's degree in history from the Metropolitan State University of Denver.

Mr. Tonner will receive compensation for his Board and committee service in accordance with the Company's outside director compensation program as previously described in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, prorated for any partial years of service.

There is no family relationship between Mr. Tonner and any other executive officer or director of the Company. There are no transactions in which Mr. Tonner has an interest requiring disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K. There is no arrangement or understanding between Mr. Tonner and any other persons pursuant to which he was selected as a director.

*Board Size*

 

On April 22, 2026, the Board, in accordance with the Company's bylaws, approved an increase in the number of directorships on the Board from five to six (the "Board Increase").

**Item 8.01 Other Events.** 

On April 23, 2026, the District Court for the City and County of Denver, Colorado (the "Court") issued an omnibus order on cross-motions for summary judgment in the previously disclosed matter captioned SHF Holdings, Inc. v. Daniel Roda, Gregory W. Ellis, and James R. Carroll, Case No. 2024CV33187. The ruling addressed the validity of the Second Amendment (the "Second Amendment") to the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement") entered into in connection with the Company's October 2022 acquisition of Rockview Digital Solutions, Inc. d/b/a Abaca. The Court denied the Company's motion for summary judgment in its entirety.

The Court granted the counterclaim plaintiffs' motions for summary judgement regarding the validity of the Second Amendment and the claim that the Company breached the Merger Agreement by using a certain formula in the Second Amendment to calculate the first anniversary cash consideration payment. Damages for these two counterclaims are to be determined at a future hearing. The Court denied both parties' motions for summary judgement regarding a claim related to the second anniversary cash consideration payment of $3.0 million. The Court also denied the counterclaim plaintiffs' motion for summary judgment on the Company's declaratory judgment claim.

The Company intends to continue defending its positions vigorously. In addition, the Company may evaluate the possibility of a negotiated resolution of the dispute. In the event of a negotiated resolution, the Company's ability to fund any payments owed in cash may be materially constrained by the terms of the previously disclosed Equity Line of Credit, as amended, and the Company's Series B Convertible Preferred Stock. Litigation is inherently uncertain, and there can be no assurance that any negotiated resolution will be reached or that the terms of any such resolution are favorable to the Company.

The $3.0 million previously deposited into the Court's registry in November 2024 remains reflected in the Company's financial statements.
