Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
On October 14, 2022, SRAX, Inc. (the “Company”) received notice from the Listing Qualifications Staff (the “Staff”) of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) indicating that, based upon the Company’s continued non-compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) (the “Filing Requirement”), the Company’s securities are subject to delisting from Nasdaq unless the Company timely requests a hearing before the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “Panel”). The Company plans to timely request a hearing before the Panel and, in accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5815(a)(1)(B), a stay of any further suspension or delisting action by Nasdaq at least pending the issuance of a decision and the expiration of any extension that may be granted by the Panel following the hearing.
The Company filed its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, with the Securities and Exchanges Commission (the “SEC”) on October 12, 2022; however, the Company has not yet filed the Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2022 and June 30, 2022. At the hearing, the Company will present its plan to evidence full compliance with the Filing Requirement and request an extension of time to do so. The Company is diligently working to file all necessary periodic reports with the SEC as soon as practicable; however, there can be no assurances that the Panel will determine to continue the Company’s listing on Nasdaq or that the Company will be able to timely satisfy the terms of any extension that may be granted by the Panel as a result of the hearing.
Item 8.01. Other Events.
On October 20, 2022, the Company issued a press release announcing its receipt of the delisting notice from Nasdaq. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.01 and is incorporated herein by reference.
