ITEM 3.01 NOTICE OF
DELISTING OR FAILURE TO SATISFY A CONTINUED LISTING RULE OR STANDARD; TRANSFER OF LISTING.
As previously disclosed, on March 17, 2023, Silvergate Capital Corporation (the “Company”)
was notified by the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) that, as the Company had not timely filed its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022
(the “2022 10-K”), the NYSE would monitor the status of the Company’s late filing and related public disclosures for up to a six-month period from its due date, but that the
NYSE could, in its sole discretion, commence delisting proceedings at any time during the period that is available to complete the filing, if circumstances warranted. Further, as previously disclosed on May 11, 2023, the NYSE suspended trading in
the Company’s securities and indicated to the Company that it expects to commence the delisting of the Company’s securities after the Company informed the NYSE that it will not file the 2022 10-K or any subsequent periodic reports as required by
Sections 13(a) or 15(d) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).
Later on May 11, 2023, the Company was notified by the NYSE that it had determined to commence proceedings to delist the Company’s securities from the NYSE
pursuant to Section 802.01E of the NYSE Listed Company Manual as a result of the foregoing. Also on May 11, 2023, the NYSE applied to the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”)
to delist the Company’s securities.
The Company does not intend to appeal the NYSE’s determination, and therefore, it is expected that the Company’s securities will be delisted from the NYSE
and deregistered under Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act ten business days following the NYSE’s application to the SEC. As of May 12, 2023, it may be possible to trade the Company’s securities on the OTC Experts Market; however, the Company makes no
recommendation as to the advisability of any such trading.
SIGNATURES
