EDGIO, INC.

Registrant’s telephone number, including area code: (602) 850-5000

Securities registered pursuant to Section 12(b) of the Act:

Check the appropriate box below if the Form 8-K filing is intended to simultaneously satisfy the filing obligation of the registrant under any of the following provisions:

Indicate by check mark whether the registrant is an emerging growth company as defined in Rule 405 of the Securities Act of 1933 (17 CFR §230.405) or Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (17 CFR §240.12b-2).

Emerging Growth Company ☐

If an emerging growth company, indicate by check mark if the registrant has elected not to use the extended transition period for complying with any new or revised financial accounting standards provided pursuant to Section 13(a) of the Exchange Act. ☐

On May 16, 2024, Edgio, Inc. (“Edgio” or the “Company”) received a notification letter (the “Notice”) from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) indicating that, as a result of the Company’s delay in filing its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2024 (the “2024 1Q Form 10-Q”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), the Company is not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) (the “Rule”), which requires Nasdaq-listed companies to timely file all required periodic financial reports with the SEC.

The Company previously reported in its Notification of Late Filing on Form 12b-25, filed with the SEC on May 13, 2024, that the Company was unable to file its 2024 1Q Form 10-Q within the prescribed time period due to the Company’s previous independent registered public accounting firm’s decision to resign as independent registered public accounting firm of the Company, effective December 18, 2023. The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company accepted the resignation and immediately engaged in a thorough search for a new independent registered public accounting firm.

Due to the engagement of a new independent registered public accounting firm in the first quarter of 2024, the Company requires additional time to complete the procedures necessary to file its Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and accordingly, the 2024 1Q Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2024 is delayed.

The Notice has no immediate effect on the listing of the Company’s common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market. The Company is required to update its plan to regain compliance with the Rule. The Nasdaq previously granted the Company until June 30, 2024 to file its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 (the “2023 Form 10-K”) to regain compliance. The Company has requested that Nasdaq grant the Company an exception of up to 180 calendar days from the prescribed due date for filing the 2024 1Q Form 10-Q, or until September 30, 2024, to regain compliance. The Company intends to file the 2023 Form 10-K and the 2024 1Q Form 10-Q as promptly as possible in order to regain compliance with the Rule. If Nasdaq does not accept the Company’s plan, the Company will have the opportunity to appeal that decision to a Nasdaq Hearings Panel.
