Local Bounti Corporation ( (LOCL) ) has shared an update.

On February 5, 2026, Local Bounti Corporation received a notice from the New York Stock Exchange stating that it was no longer in compliance with the exchange’s minimum market capitalization standard because its 30-day average global market cap and stockholders’ equity had each fallen below $50 million. The company has 45 days from receipt of the notice to submit a remediation plan and up to nine months to regain compliance, during which its shares will continue trading, but it warns investors that failure to demonstrate adequate progress could result in suspension and delisting from the NYSE.

Local Bounti said it intends to develop and submit a compliance plan within the required timeframe and is evaluating all available options to restore its market capitalization and equity metrics. The notice underscores ongoing financial pressures on the indoor farming specialist and introduces added uncertainty for shareholders, as the company acknowledged it cannot assure investors it will meet NYSE requirements and preserve its listing status.

The most recent analyst rating on (LOCL) stock is a Hold with a $2.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Local Bounti Corporation stock, see the LOCL Stock Forecast page.
