Borealis Foods regains Nasdaq audit committee compliance after director appointment

Mixed Impact 3 of 5 leadership Written later

Borealis Foods notified Nasdaq on November 4, 2026 that its audit committee had only two members from September 28 to October 29, 2026, below the three-member minimum, and says it regained compliance after the Board appointed Danat Shiderkulov on October 29. The filing also discloses that lender Saule Algaziyeva, mother of director Zaure Algaziyeva, became the lender under the company's credit agreement and holder of a convertible note on July 31, 2026, leading the Board to find Zaure Algaziyeva no longer independent.
