Stardust Power Inc., the firm developing a large-scale lithium processing plant in Muskogee, Oklahoma, announced it received formal written notice from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC confirming full compliance with continued listing requirements as of October 28, 2025. The confirmation ends all deficiency matters for Nasdaq Compliance Stardust Power and stabilizes investor confidence across Oklahoma Energy and national equity markets.
Additionally, this compliance milestone signals new momentum inside America’s battery supply chain and broader critical minerals sector. The company’s progress shows Oklahoma’s growing role beyond oil and gas toward next-generation energy manufacturing.
The notice dated October 28 verifies Stardust Power now meets the Nasdaq Capital Market standards. Previously, the firm had prepared to appeal a non-compliance determination before the Nasdaq Hearings Panel on November 4, 2025. That hearing has been canceled. The issue is officially closed. Shares and warrants will continue trading under “SDST” and “SDSTW.” Therefore, the company preserves uninterrupted access to capital markets, a key element for project financing.
Compliance Boosts Investor and Project Confidence
This clearance strengthens the company’s position as it advances toward a Final Investment Decision. Each completed step de-risks construction and validates project credibility. Moreover, analysts see the ruling as a positive signal for infrastructure investors monitoring new lithium-processing capacity in the United States.
The Muskogee refinery remains one of America’s most significant planned lithium conversion facilities. When completed, it will support battery-grade output for the expanding EV manufacturing network and strengthen domestic resource independence. Oklahoma’s inclusion in that network reinforces its long-term reputation as a reliable energy state.
Oklahoma’s Expanding Role in Energy Transition
Oklahoma is no longer limited to oil and gas. Instead, it is becoming a bridge between traditional production and modern clean-energy innovation. Projects like this move Oklahoma Energy toward national prominence in critical minerals, technology, and downstream supply-chain investment.
Furthermore, the combination of Nasdaq compliance and construction progress provides a clear narrative for stakeholders. Investors see regulatory stability, community leaders see new employment potential, and policy advocates see proof of the region’s transition from hydrocarbons to high-value manufacturing.
