Item 8.01 Other Events.

As reported in Form 8-K filed on August 13, 2026, Faraday Future Intelligent Electric Inc. (the “Company”) filed Form-10Q for the quarter ending June 30, 2026 (the “Quarterly Report”). In the Quarterly Report, Total Stockholder’s Equity as of June 30, 2026, was $1.412 million, below the Nasdaq Equity Standard articulated in Rules 5550(a) and 5550(b)(1) of $2.5 million.

Since the end of the quarter ending June 30, 2026, the Company has as of July 31, 2026, and continuing through the date of this Current Report, regained compliance with the Total Stockholder’s Equity requirement based upon decreases in notes payable, derivative call option liability, together with a decrease in accounts payable and accrued liabilities driven primarily by a decline in employee-related liabilities and reconciliation of legacy vendor accounts payable.

Nasdaq will continue to monitor the Company’s ongoing compliance with the Stockholders’ Equity requirement. If, at the time of its next periodic report, the Company does not evidence compliance with such requirement, the Company may be subject to delisting.
