Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.

On December 4, 2023, ADDvantage Technologies Group, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing the Company regained compliance with Nasdaq’s Minimum Bid Price Requirement. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

In accordance with General Instruction B.2 of Form 8-K, the information in this Item 7.01 of this Current Report, including Exhibit 99.1, shall not be deemed “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Exchange Act or the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except as shall be expressly set forth by reference in such a filing. Furthermore, the furnishing of information under Item 7.01 of this Current Report is not intended to constitute a determination by the Company that the information contained herein, including the exhibits hereto, is material or that the dissemination of such information is required by Regulation FD.

Item 8.01 Other Events.

As previously disclosed by the Company in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 9, 2023, the Company received a written notice on June 7, 2023 (the “Initial Notice”) from the Listing Qualifications department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) indicating that the Company was not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2), which requires a minimum closing bid price of $1.00 per share of the Company’s common stock (the “Minimum Bid Price Requirement”). The Initial Notice provided the Company 180 calendar days, or until December 4, 2023, to regain compliance with Nasdaq’s Minimum Bid Requirement.

On December 1, 2023, Nasdaq notified the Company that from November 16, 2023 to November 30, 2023, the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock was $1.00 per share or greater, and that as a result, the Company had regained compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. Accordingly, Nasdaq considers the matter closed.
