The SEC has instituted an administrative proceeding against Fomo Worldwide, Inc. after the Wyoming-incorporated issuer allegedly stopped filing required periodic reports. Fomo Worldwide, SEC CIK No. 867028, has a long EDGAR history dating back to the 1990s, but the Commission says the company has not filed any periodic report since its Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2024. The proceeding is notable because Fomo's filing record contains more than a simple late-reporting gap: recent EDGAR materials include bankruptcy or receivership disclosures, amended current reports and SEC-generated correspondence. For investors reviewing the company, the core issue is not merely whether an SEC record exists, but whether that record still provides a current picture of the issuer's financial condition, operating status and corporate identity.

NEWS:
The SEC's September 15, 2026 order identifies Fomo Worldwide, Inc. as an issuer with securities registered under the Exchange Act. The Commission alleges that Fomo failed to comply with Section 13(a) and the related periodic-reporting rules, which require registered issuers to file current and accurate annual and quarterly reports. According to the SEC order and EDGAR filing history, the company's last periodic report was a Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2024. That filing was submitted in July 2024, after which the company's periodic reporting record stopped.
Fomo's EDGAR profile gives the case a deeper due-diligence angle than a routine delinquent-filing notice. The company has CIK No. 867028 and hundreds of historical filings since the 1990s. Current EDGAR metadata identifies the issuer as Fomo Worldwide, Inc., a Wyoming-incorporated company with a Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania business address and SIC classification "Investors, NEC." The same EDGAR profile also flags terminated municipal-adviser registration statuses, which illustrates how older regulatory labels and current issuer reporting status can coexist in one searchable record.
Recent filings show why chronology matters. In April 2024, Fomo filed an amended Form 8-K/A with items including termination of a material definitive agreement and bankruptcy or receivership. Later SEC-generated correspondence appears in late 2024 and early 2025. Those items do not replace the missing Forms 10-K or 10-Q, but they help show that the reporting gap occurred amid broader corporate stress and regulatory communication rather than during an ordinary operating period. Investors relying only on the company name or historical filings may therefore miss the fact that the latest full periodic financial information predates later restructuring-related disclosures.
The SEC has instituted proceedings under Exchange Act Section 12(j), which allows the Commission, after notice and an opportunity for hearing, to suspend or revoke the registration of a class of securities when an issuer repeatedly fails to comply with federal reporting obligations. The September 2026 order is the start of that administrative process, not a completed revocation decision. The practical question before the Commission is whether investor protection requires suspending or revoking the registration of Fomo's registered securities or successor securities under any new corporate names.
WHY THIS CASE MATTERS:
Fomo Worldwide shows why a long EDGAR history can be both useful and misleading. A company with hundreds of historical filings may look more transparent than a newly registered issuer, but the age and continuity of the latest periodic reports are what determine whether investors have usable current information. In Fomo's case, the SEC's proceeding focuses on the fact that periodic reporting stopped after the March 2024 quarter, even though other EDGAR items and correspondence continued to appear afterward.
The case also highlights the importance of separating different types of SEC records. A current report, SEC staff letter, ownership filing or historical registration marker may help reconstruct a company's story, but none of them substitutes for current periodic financial statements. For a company with name changes, distress disclosures and a long public filing trail, due diligence should connect CIK, ticker history, filing type, latest Form 10-Q or Form 10-K, and any bankruptcy-related events before drawing conclusions from old corporate descriptions.
