08/20

SurgePays Inc. (NASDAQ:SURG) shares fell 30.23% in Wednesday’s after-hours trading after the company reported second-quarter 2026 financial results and disclosed continued liquidity concerns in its latest quarterly filing.

The stock closed Wednesday’s regular session down 8.31% at $0.25. It fell 30.23% to $0.17 in after-hours trading.

SurgePays is a telecommunications and financial technology company that operates mobile virtual network operators and a fintech transactions platform.

Going Concern Warning

SurgePays reported $1.95 million in unrestricted cash as of June 30, 2026, alongside a $21.30 million working capital deficit and $20.75 million stockholders’ deficit.

The company reported a $10.76 million net loss available to common stockholders and $7.18 million in net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30.

SurgePays said it does not believe it has sufficient cash resources to meet its obligations as they become due over the following 12 months.

The company said these conditions raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern within one year. Management added that its plans to address the situation, including additional financing and efforts to grow its LinkUp Mobile and HERO platforms, do not alleviate that substantial doubt.
