Failure to Satisfy Listing Rule Form 8 K

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

On November 26, 2024, Imunon, Inc. ("the Company") received a letter from the staff (the "Staff") of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC ("Nasdaq") providing notification that, for the previous 30 consecutive business days, the bid price for the Company's common stock had closed below the minimum $1.00 per share requirement for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2).

Nasdaq's notice has no immediate effect on the listing of the Company's common stock on The Nasdaq Capital Market, which continues to trade under the symbol "IMNN".

In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company has been provided an initial period of 180 calendar days, or until May 27, 2025, to regain compliance with this requirement. To regain compliance, the closing bid price of the Company's common stock must be $1.00 per share or more for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days at any time before May 27, 2025. If the Company does not regain compliance with Rule 5550(a)(2) by May 27, 2025, the Company may be eligible for an additional 180 calendar day compliance period. To qualify, the Company will be required to meet the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other Nasdaq initial listing standards, except the bid price requirement, and would need to provide written notice to Nasdaq of its intention to cure the deficiency during the second compliance period. If it appears to the Staff that the Company will not be able to cure the deficiency, or if the Company is otherwise not eligible, Nasdaq would notify the Company that its securities will be subject to delisting. In the event of such notification, the Company may appeal the Staff's determination to delist its securities, but there can be no assurance the Staff would grant the Company's request for continued listing.

The Company intends to actively monitor the closing bid price of its common stock and may, as appropriate, consider available options to regain compliance.

This Current Report on Form 8-K is filed to satisfy the obligation under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(b) and Item 3.01(a) of Form 8-K that the Company publicly disclose the receipt of the deficiency notice within four (4) business days after the date of the deficiency letter.

Except for the factual statements made herein, information contained in this report consists of forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict. Words such as "will," "believes," "intends," "expects," "plans," and similar expressions, or the use of future tense, identify forward-looking statements, but their absence does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. Such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of performance and actual actions or events could differ materially from those contained in such statements. For example, there can be no assurance that the Company will meet the bid price requirement during any compliance period or in the future, or otherwise meet Nasdaq compliance standards, or that Nasdaq will grant the Company any relief from delisting as necessary or that the Company can ultimately meet applicable Nasdaq requirements for any such relief. The forward-looking statements contained in this report speak only as of the date of this report and the Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements to reflect changes in information, events or circumstances after the date of this report, unless required by law.
