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

On May 15, 2023, Cyclo Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company”), received a letter from The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) stating that the Company was not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) (the “Rule”) because the stockholders’ equity of the Company of $(438,876) as of March 31, 2023, as reported in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on May 12, 2023, was below the minimum requirement of $2,500,000.

Pursuant to Nasdaq’s Listing Rules, the Company has 45 calendar days (until June 29, 2023), to submit a plan to regain compliance with the Rule (a “Compliance Plan”). The Company intends to submit a Compliance Plan within the required time, although there can be no assurance that the Compliance Plan will be accepted by Nasdaq. If the Compliance Plan is accepted by Nasdaq, the Company will be granted an extension of up to 180 calendar days from May 15, 2023 to regain compliance with the Rule.

In the event the Compliance Plan is not accepted by Nasdaq, or in the event the Compliance Plan is accepted but the Company fails to regain compliance within the extension period, the Company will have the right to a hearing before Nasdaq’s Hearing Panel. The hearing request would stay any suspension or delisting action pending the conclusion of the hearing process and the expiration of any additional extension period granted by the panel following the hearing.
