Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
On January 29, 2025, NYSE American LLC (“NYSE American” or the “Exchange”) publicly announced and provided a notice to Know Labs, Inc. (the “Company”) that the NYSE Regulation has suspended trading of, and determined to commence proceedings to delist, the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), from NYSE American. NYSE Regulation has determined that the Company is no longer suitable for listing pursuant to Section 1003(f)(v) of the NYSE American Company Guide (the “Company Guide”) due to the low selling price of the Common Stock.
The Company has a right to a review of the staff’s determination to delist the Company’s common stock by the Listings Qualifications Panel of the Committee for Review of the Board of Directors of the NYSE American. The Company’s request for such a review must be made by February 5, 2025. The Company intends to request a review of the staff’s determination and appeal this determination, however, there can be no assurance that the appeal will be successful. The NYSE will apply to the Securities and Exchange Commission to delist the Company’s common stock pending completion of applicable procedures, including any appeal by the Company of the staff’s determination.
The Company’s common stock began trading under the trading symbol “KNWN” on the OTC Pink Market operated on the OTC Markets system effective with the open of the markets on January 30, 2025. The Company intends to apply to have its common stock quoted on the OTCQB on the OTC Markets; however, there can be no assurances that its common stock will be approved, or will continue, to be traded on such market.
