Item 3.01. Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing
 
On May 21, 2024, Professional Diversity Network, Inc. (the “Company”) received a letter from Nasdaq notifying the Company that it is not in compliance with the minimum stockholders’ equity requirement for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market. Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) requires listed companies to maintain stockholders’ equity of at least $2.5 million. In the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2024, the Company reported stockholders’ equity of $1,845,775, which is below the minimum stockholders’ equity required for continued listing. Further, as of May 21, 2024, the Company does not meet the alternatives of market value of listed securities or net income from continuing operations.
 
This notification has no immediate effect on the Company’s listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market. Nasdaq has provided the Company with 45 calendar days, or until July 5, 2024, to submit a plan to regain compliance with the minimum stockholders’ equity standard. If the Company’s plan to regain compliance is accepted, Nasdaq may grant an extension of up to 180 calendar days from the date of the notification letter to evidence compliance.
 
The Company is presently evaluating potential courses of action to regain compliance with the Nasdaq minimum stockholders’ equity standard and intends to timely submit a plan to Nasdaq to regain compliance with that standard.
