Charge Enterprises to Reschedule Second Quarter 2023 Earnings Release and Webcast

Plans to file Form 10-Q within 5-day grace period provided by SEC Rule 12b-25

Charge Enterprises, Inc. (Nasdaq: CRGE) (“Charge” or the “Company”) today announced that it will reschedule its second quarter 2023 earnings release and related webcast due to a delay in finalizing its Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2023. The Company will file a Form 12b-25 Notification of Late Filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to extend the filing deadline for its Form 10-Q for five calendar days, until Monday, August 14, 2023. The extension is the result of the Company considering additional disclosures and thus is unable to complete its preparation of its Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2023 in a timely manner.

The Company will file its Form 10-Q, publish its second quarter 2023 earnings release, and hold its quarterly webcast on August 14, 2023.

The Company plans to issue its second quarter 2023 results before the market opens that morning. The following documents will be available on the Company website Charge Enterprises/Investors: Earnings press release, webcast link, presentation slides and SEC filings.
