Nasdaq Delisting Notice and Hearing Request
London, United Kingdom July 28, 2025 --( )-- Argo Blockchain plc ('Argo' or the 'Company') Argo Receives Nasdaq Delisting Notice and Intends to Request a Hearing As previously announced, on 16 January 2025, Argo Blockchain plc (LSE: ARB; Nasdaq: ARBK) received a letter from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC Listing Qualifications Department ('Nasdaq') indicating that it was not in compliance with the minimum bid price requirement set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(a)(1) because the bid price of Argo's American Depositary Shares ('ADSs') closed below $1.00 per share for 30 consecutive business days. Argo announces today that it received a letter from Nasdaq dated 18 July 2025, indicating that Argo has not regained compliance with the minimum bid price requirement pursuant to the cure period provided by Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A) by the prescribed deadline of 15 July 2025, and that, as a result, Nasdaq has determined to delist Argo's ADSs from the Nasdaq Global Select Market. In accordance with the Nasdaq Listing Rules, Argo intends to request a hearing before a Nasdaq Hearings Panel. The hearing request will automatically stay any suspension or delisting action pending the conclusion of the hearings process and it is expected that the Company's securities will continue to trade on Nasdaq under its trading symbol: ARBK. There can be no assurance that Argo will be able to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement or will otherwise be in compliance with all other applicable Nasdaq Listing Rules, or that Argo's hearing will be successful. If Argo's securities are suspended from trading on or delisted from Nasdaq, it could become more difficult to buy or sell Argo's ADSs or to obtain accurate quotations, and the price of Argo's ADSs could suffer a material decline. Further announcements will be made as appropriate. This announcement contains inside information.

Actual results may differ materially from historical results or those indicated by these forward-looking statements as a result of a variety of factors and are subject to certain assumptions, risks, uncertainties and changes in circumstances. If Argo is unable to regain compliance with the Nasdaq minimum bid price requirement and its hearing is unsuccessful, its ADSs will be delisted from the Nasdaq Global Select Market. If the ADSs are delisted from the Nasdaq Global Select Market, they may trade on the over-the-counter market, which may be a less liquid market. In such case, your ability to trade, or obtain quotations of the market value of, the ADSs could be severely limited because of lower trading volumes and transaction delays. These factors could contribute to lower prices and larger spreads in the bid and ask prices for the ADSs.

S&P 500 & Nasdaq Notch New All-Time Closing Highs
Monday, July 28, 2025Markets lost a bit of steam mid-session this Monday, but a late surge into the close brought the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq indexes to new record closing highs. The Dow dipped slightly: -64 points, -0.14%, while the S&P 500 grew a mere 1 point, +0.02%, and the Nasdaq came up +70 points, +0.33%. The small-cap Russell 2000 also finished the day slightly in the red: -4 points, -0.19%.From April 9th lows — the day President Trump put a pause on his draconian tariff policy with nearly all U.S. trading partners — we see sizable gains across the board: the Dow +16%, the Russell 2000 +21%, the S&P 500 +23% and the tech-heavy Nasdaq, carrying the lion's share of the AI trade which has led markets all year, is up close to +30% over these 16 some-odd weeks. Earnings Reports After Today's CloseElectronic design automation software company Cadence Design Systems CDNS is up big after an impressive showing in its Q2 report released after the closing bell. Earnings of $1.65 per share improved over the $1.57 in the Zacks consensus, which itself depicted growth of more than +22% year over year. Revenues of $1.28 billion neatly overtook estimates of $1.26 billion — also up big year over year. Guidance for full-year 2025 is the icing on the cake. Shares are up +7.5% in late trading at this durable goods manufacturer Whirlpool WHR, on the other hand, missed expectations on its bottom line by two solid dimes to $1.34 per share, while meeting the $3.77 billion in the Zacks consensus exactly on the top line. North America orders outperformed expectations, but still came in -4.6% year over year. Full-year guidance for earnings is well off what analysts had previous thought, and have come down on the top line too. Shares have fallen -12.5% in the after market. What to Expect from the Stock Market on TuesdayTomorrow will be a big day for both earnings releases and economic reports. A new U.S. Trade Balance joins Retail/Wholesale Inventories for June, Case-Shiller Home Prices for May, Consumer Confidence for July and a new JOLTS (Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey) report, also for these, the JOLTS report marks the first metric hitting the tape for 'Jobs Week,' albeit a month in arrears from jobs data coming out later in the week. Expectations are for 7.5 million job openings last month, down from the 7.74 million reported a month ago — the highest month of the year, bouncing off March near-term lows of 7.2 million. Accommodation and Food Services, particularly in the South, had by far the most amount of job openings in last month's report.Q2 earnings also revs up Tuesday morning, when we hear from Boeing BA, Procter & Gamble PG, Merck MRK, UnitedHealth UNH, PayPal PYPL and UPS UPS, all in the morning. After tomorrow's close, we'll get results from Starbucks SBUX and Visa the first day of the two-day Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meetings commence. On Wednesday, the Fed will decide on new interest rate policy, but there is a more than +95% chance that no move is made on the 4.25-4.50% Fed funds rate we've seen since December of last year.
