On May 21, 2026, Flag Ship Acquisition Corporation (the "Company") received an additional deficiency letter (the "Notice") from the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC ("Nasdaq") as a result of the Company's failure to timely file its Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2026. As reported in a press release dated April 22, 2026, the Company initially received a deficiency notice from Nasdaq for failing to timely file its Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2025 (the "Initial Deficiency Notice"). As of the date of this report, the Company remains delinquent in filing its Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2025 (the "Form 10-K"), and its Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2026 (the "Form 10-Q"), as required by Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1).

Under Nasdaq's Listing Rules, the Company must submit a plan to regain compliance with Nasdaq within 60 calendar days of the date of the Initial Deficiency Notice. If the Company's plan is accepted, then Nasdaq may grant an exception of up to 180 calendar days from the date that the Form 10-K should have been filed, or October 12, 2026. The Notice has no immediate effect on the listing of the Company's ordinary shares. The Company continues to work diligently to complete and file the Form 10-K and Form 10-Q. There can be no assurance, however, that the Company will be able to regain compliance with the listing requirements discussed above or otherwise satisfy the other Nasdaq listing criteria.

**Exhibit 99.1**

**Flag Ship Acquisition Corporation Receives Additional Nasdaq Notification Regarding Late Filing of Quarterly Report**

NEW YORK, May 27, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Flag Ship Acquisition Corporation (Nasdaq: <u>FSHP</u>) (the "Company") announced that it received a second notification letter from the Listing Qualifications Department of the Nasdaq Stock Market ("Nasdaq") on May 21, 2026 (the "Notice") indicating that the Company is not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) as a result of its failure to timely file its periodic report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2026 (the "Form 10-Q") with the Securities and Exchange Commission. As previously announced on April 22, 2026, the Company received a notification letter from the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Department on April 17, 2026 (the "Initial Notice") as a result of its failure to timely file its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 (the "Form 10-K").

The notices have no immediate effect on the listing or trading of the Company's ordinary shares on the Nasdaq Global Market.

Under Nasdaq rules, the Company has 60 calendar days from receipt of the Initial Notice, or until June 16, 2026, to submit a plan to regain compliance. If Nasdaq accepts the Company's plan, Nasdaq may grant an exception of up to 180 calendar days from the Form 10-K due date, or until October 12, 2026, for the Company to regain compliance.

The Company intends to take the necessary steps to regain compliance with Nasdaq's listing rules as soon as practicable. However, there can be no assurance that Nasdaq will accept the Company's plan or grant an exception, or that the Company will be able to regain compliance within any extension period that may be granted.

This press release is issued in accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(b), which requires prompt disclosure of receipt of a deficiency notification.
