 Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.

As previously reported on a Form 8-K filed by Nuo Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company”), on January 26, 2016, the Company filed a voluntary petition in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the “Bankruptcy Court”) seeking relief under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”), which is being administered under the caption “In re: Nuo Therapeutics, Inc.”, Case No. 16-10192 (MFW) (the “Chapter 11 Case”). On May 5, 2016 (the “Effective Date”), the Company's Modified First Amended Plan of Reorganization (as confirmed, the "Plan") went effective under the terms applicable to "Scenario A" as set forth therein, as reported on a Form 8-K filed on May 10, 2016. On June 3, 2016, the Company filed its unaudited Monthly Operating Report for the period between April 1 and May 5, 2016 (the "Monthly Operating Report") with the Bankruptcy Court. The financial statements in the Monthly Operating Report were not audited and were not prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The Company cautions investors and potential investors not to place undue reliance upon the information contained in the Monthly Operating Report, which was not prepared for the purpose of providing the basis for an investment decision relating to any of the securities of the Company. The Monthly Operating Report has been prepared solely for the purpose of complying with the Operating Guidelines and Reporting Requirements for Debtors in Possession and Trustees established by the Office of the United States Trustee in accordance with 28 U.S.C. § 586(a)(3). The Monthly Operating Report is limited in scope and only covers a limited time period.

There can be no assurance that, from the perspective of an investor or potential investor in the Company’s securities, the Monthly Operating Report is complete. The Monthly Operating Report may be subject to future adjustment and reconciliation. The Monthly Operating Report also contains information for periods which are shorter or otherwise different from those required in the Company’s reports pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and such information might not be indicative of the Company’s financial condition or operating results for the period that would be reflected in the Company’s financial statements or in its reports pursuant to the Exchange Act. The information set forth in the Monthly Operating Report should not be viewed as indicative of future results

A copy of this Monthly Operating Report is attached as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference. The Monthly Operating Report annexed as Exhibit 99.1 hereto shall not be deemed an admission as to the materiality of any information disclosed therein.

The Company notes that trading in its pre-bankruptcy shares of common stock (the "Old Shares") has ceased, and such Old Shares were cancelled in their entirety on the Effective Date. Subject to the terms of the Plan, record holders of Old Shares will be issued new shares of the Company's common stock ("New Shares"), provided such holders submit the necessary documentation (including release) within 60 days of the Effective Date, as in accordance with the terms of the Plan. Soon thereafter, the Company anticipates that shares of the New Shares will begin to trade in the public markets under a new CUSIP number.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This Current Report on Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are those involving future events and future results that are based on current expectations, estimates, forecasts, and projections as well as the current beliefs and assumptions of the Company’s management. When used in this document, the words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “project,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “may,” “predict,” “will,” “would,” “could,” “should,” “target” and similar expressions are forward-looking statements. All statements contained in this Current Report that are not statements of historical fact and other estimates, projections, future trends and the outcome of events that have not yet occurred referenced in this Form 8-K should be considered forward-looking statements. Although the Company believes that its expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable, such statements involve risks and uncertainties and no assurance can be given that actual results will be consistent with these forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ from these forward-looking statements include the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern; the timing for the issuance of the New Shares; the commencement of trading in the New Shares; the Company's ability to have its Chapter 11 plan approved; the Company's ability to execute upon its Chapter 11 plan; the Company’s ability to obtain Bankruptcy Court approval with respect to its Chapter 11 plan or motions in the Chapter 11 Case; the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to prosecute, develop and consummate one or more plans of reorganization with respect to the Chapter 11 Case; Bankruptcy Court rulings in the Chapter 11 Case and the outcome of the cases in general; the length of time the Company will operate under the Chapter 11 Case; risks associated with third party motions in the Chapter 11 Case, which may interfere with the Company’s ability to develop and consummate one or more plans of reorganization (including its Chapter 11 plan) once such plans are developed; the potential adverse effects of the Chapter 11 proceedings on the Company’s liquidity, results of operations or business prospects; whether the Company will be able to identify potential third parties interested in acquiring its assets; the ability to execute the Company’s business and restructuring plan; increased legal costs related to the Chapter 11 Case and other litigation; the Company's ability to raise sufficient proceeds from the sale of assets; the Company’s ability to generate or raise cash and maintain a cash balance sufficient to fund continued capital needs; restructuring payments and debt-service; the substantial risk that the Company's common stock retains little or no value; the Company’s ability to maintain contracts that are critical to its operation; to obtain and maintain service providers; to retain key executives and employees; and other risks and uncertainties described in the Company's filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission its most recent Reports on Forms 10-K and 10-Q. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements, and the Company's business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows may be materially and adversely affected. Given these risks and uncertainties, investors should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements as a prediction of actual results. Except to the extent required by applicable law or rules, the Company undertakes no obligation and does not intend to update, revise or otherwise publicly release any revisions to its forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of any unanticipated events.
