Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

On October 5, 2022, SAB Biotherapeutics, Inc. (the “Company”) received a written notification (the “Notice Letter”) from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that we were not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(a)(1), as the closing bid price for our common stock was below the $1.00 per share requirement for the last 30 consecutive business days. The Notice Letter stated that we have 180 calendar days, or until April 3, 2023 (the “Initial Compliance Period”), to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement. If we do not regain compliance by the end of the Initial Compliance Period, we may apply for an additional compliance period as provided for in the Notice Letter. Nasdaq’s determination of whether we qualify for an additional compliance period will depend on whether we will meet the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other applicable requirements for initial listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market, with the exception of the minimum bid price requirement, and a written notice of our intention to cure the deficiency during the additional compliance period by effecting a reverse stock split, if necessary.



The Notice Letter has no immediate effect on the listing of our common stock on The Nasdaq Global Market. In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), we can regain compliance if the closing bid price of our common stock is at least $1.00 for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days. In the event that we do not regain compliance with Listing Rule 5450(a)(1) prior to the expiration of the Initial Compliance Period (or additional compliance period, if applicable), we will receive written notification that our securities are subject to delisting.



The Company intends to actively monitor the closing bid price of its common stock and is evaluating available options to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement or that the Company will otherwise remain in compliance with the other listing standards for the Nasdaq Stock Market.
