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

On November 29, 2023, Daily Journal Corporation (the “Company”) notified The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) of the passing of Charles T. Munger on November 28, 2023. Mr. Munger was a director of the Company and a member of its audit committee. The Company notified Nasdaq that, as a result of Mr. Munger’s passing, the Company’s audit committee currently has two members, contrary to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5605(c)(2)(A)’s requirement that the Company have an audit committee of at least three members. Accordingly, the Company notified Nasdaq that the Company has fallen out of compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5605(c)(2)(A).

In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5605(c)(4), the Company has until the earlier of its next annual shareholders meeting or November 28, 2024 to regain compliance with the requirements of Nasdaq Listing Rule 5605(c)(2)(A); provided, however, that if the next annual shareholders meeting is held before May 26, 2024, the Company has until May 26, 2024 to regain compliance. The Company expects to hold its next annual shareholders meeting on or about February 14, 2024, accordingly the Company expects to have until May 26, 2024 to regain compliance.

The Company intends to fill the vacancy on the Company’s board of directors and audit committee with a qualified individual who meets the criteria of Nasdaq Listing Rule 5605(c)(2)(A) once it identifies such a candidate.
