Item 8.01 Other Information.

On January 4, 2024, Urban One, Inc. (the “Company”) announced that it had received notice from the Nasdaq Stock Market, LLC (“Nasdaq”) confirming that it has regained compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c) (the “Periodic Filing Rule”) which requires listed companies to timely file all required periodic financial reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).  The Company filed its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2023 on December 22, 2023 bringing the Company into compliance with the Periodic Filing Rule. With the Company in compliance with the Periodic Filing Rule, Nasdaq has ceased any action to delist the Company’s securities.

While the Company is now in compliance with the Periodic Filing Rule, Nasdaq has informed the Company that it will be subject to a Mandatory Panel Monitor for a period of one year, or until December 29, 2024. If, within the one year monitoring period, the Company again fails to comply with the Periodic Filing Rule, the Company will not be permitted to provide the Nasdaq Staff with a plan of compliance with respect to that deficiency, nor will the company be afforded a cure period. Instead, upon the Nasdaq Staff issuing a delist determination letter, the Company would then have an opportunity to request a new hearing with the initial Hearing Panel or a newly convened Hearing Panel if the initial Hearing Panel is unavailable.

Except as required by law, the Company undertakes no obligation to update such statements to reflect events or circumstances arising after such date and cautions investors not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the statements based on a number of factors, including but not limited to the following: any recurrence of the COVID-19 pandemic, the duration and scope of related government orders and restrictions, the impact on our employees, economic, public health, and political conditions that impact consumer confidence and spending, including the impact of COVID-19 and other health epidemics or pandemics on the global economy; the cost and availability of capital or credit facility borrowings; the ability to obtain equity financing; general market conditions; the adequacy of cash flows or available debt resources to fund operations; and other risk factors described from time to time in the Company’s Forms 10-K, Forms 10-K/A, Forms 10-Q, Forms 10-Q/A and Form 8-K reports (including all amendments to those reports).
