Triller, the creator and marketing company that once positioned itself as a potential TikTok rival in the United States, has been delisted from the Nasdaq after failing to meet mandatory financial reporting requirements.
The company confirmed in a regulatory filing that its stock was suspended after it missed multiple deadlines to submit both quarterly and annual financial reports. Nasdaq had issued several notices, followed by a hearing, before ultimately removing Triller’s shares from the exchange.
The delisting marks another major setback for a firm that aggressively sought to capitalise on uncertainty around TikTok’s future in the US. In late 2024, Triller recruited Sean Kim, TikTok’s former head of product, and expanded efforts in early 2025 to attract TikTok users amid fears of a potential US ban on the ByteDance-owned platform.
Those efforts have since lost momentum. TikTok’s US operations now appear more secure, with company leadership indicating that a deal involving new investors and a joint venture structure is expected to close in early 2026. At the same time, competition from Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts has continued to intensify, limiting Triller’s ability to gain meaningful traction.
Although Triller is widely known for its short-form video app, the company operates several other businesses, including influencer marketing platform Julius, a text-marketing service, and TrillerTV, a combat sports streaming platform. However, the app remained central to its public market narrative, particularly for retail investors hoping it could capture market share from dominant social platforms.

Following the delisting, Triller shares will no longer trade on the Nasdaq, though limited over-the-counter transactions may still be possible. The company attributed its reporting delays to unresolved technical issues related to account consolidation within its US operations. Management said it expects to return to full compliance within weeks and stated that no operational irregularities had been identified.
Triller became a public company in October 2024 through a reverse merger with Hong Kong-based firm AGBA, abandoning an earlier plan for a direct listing. Financial disclosures show that operating revenue for the first nine months of 2024 fell sharply compared with the same period in the previous year, highlighting the financial strain facing the business as it struggles to stabilise operations and restore investor confidence.
