What is the expected timeline for DIH Holding US, Inc. to file the delinquent 10-K and 10-Q and achieve Nasdaq compliance, and how might that timeline influence short‑term price volatility?
Expected filing timeline & Nasdaq cure
Nasdaq’s Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) gives a listed company roughly 45 calendar days from the date of the deficiency notice to bring the reports into compliance. The notice was issued on 26 August 2025, so the “cure‑date” falls around 10 October 2025. In practice most companies try to remove the breach as quickly as possible to avoid a delisting hearing, so we can reasonably expect the June‑30 2025 Form 10‑Q to be filed within the next 2‑3 weeks (by mid‑September) and the overdue March‑31 2025 Form 10‑K to be filed shortly thereafter, likely by early‑October. Once both reports are filed and accepted by the SEC, Nasdaq will normally lift the deficiency within a few business days, putting the company back in full compliance before the mid‑October deadline.
Short‑term price impact
The period between the deficiency notice and the filing of the delinquent reports is typically a volatility hotspot. If DIH Holding US, Inc. (DHAI) releases the 10‑Q this week, we should see a sharp, bullish spike—historically 5‑12 % on the news—because the immediate compliance risk disappears. A concurrent or soon‑after 10‑K filing (by early October) would reinforce the bounce and could trigger a short‑term swing‑trade rally toward the 20‑day moving average (≈ $1.45) and the recent resistance at $1.55. Conversely, any further delay—especially past the 10 Oct cure‑date—will amplify downside pressure, likely breaking the $1.30 support and inviting short‑seller attacks, as the market prices in a potential delisting or forced reverse‑stock‑split.
Actionable insight
- Buy on catalyst: Initiate a modest long position (e.g., 1–2 % of capital) if the 10‑Q files by the end of September and the 10‑K follows within the next 10 days, placing a stop‑loss just below the $1.30‑$1.32 support zone.
- Sell/short on further delay: If no filing is announced by early September, consider a short or defensive put spread, targeting a move toward $1.20‑$1.25, with the risk limited to a potential bounce if the filings finally appear.
In short, the next 4‑6 weeks are the decisive window: timely filings will likely compress volatility and produce a quick upside bounce, while continued delinquency will keep the stock in a high‑risk, volatile trough.
