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

     CorVel Corporation (the “Company”) was unable to file its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2005 (the “Form 10-K”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on June 29, 2005, the deadline for filing the report under Rule 12b-25 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. On June 14, 2005, the Company filed a Notification of Late Filing on Form 12b-25 with the SEC indicating that it would be unable to file its Form 10-K within the prescribed time period. Despite diligent efforts, the work necessary to complete the Form 10-K could not be finished, and the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, Grant Thornton LLP (“Grant Thornton”), was unable to provide its attestation report on management’s assessment of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, in sufficient time to permit the timely filing of the Form 10-K on June 29, 2005. Diligent efforts are expected to continue and the Company intends to complete and file its Form 10-K as soon as possible.

     As a result of its failure to file the Form 10-K by June 29, 2005, the Company is no longer in compliance with conditions for the continued listing of the Company’s common stock on the Nasdaq Stock Market under Nasdaq Marketplace Rule4310(c)(14). On June 28, 2005, the Company notified Nasdaq of its belief that it would be in violation of this rule and, accordingly, the Company will receive a written notice of staff determination from Nasdaq to prohibit the continued listing of the Company’s securities on the Nasdaq Stock Market under Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 4815(a) (the “Nasdaq Notice”). The Company shall make the Nasdaq Notice public and file it with the SEC on Form 8-K as soon as possible after receipt, but in no event later than four business days following receipt. Upon receiving the Nasdaq Notice, the Company intends to request a review from the Nasdaq Listing and Hearing Review Council to petition for continued listing on the Nasdaq Stock Market as the Company is diligently attempting to complete its Form 10-K and meet its obligations for continued listing under Rule 4310(c)(14). Notwithstanding this petition and the Company’s continued diligent efforts to file its Form 10-K, the Company cannot assure investors that Nasdaq will not determine to suspend trading and cease listing of the Company’s common stock.

     The Company previously disclosed on its Notification of Late Filing on Form 12b-25 filed with the SEC on June 14, 2005 that revenues were $291 million, gross profit was $45 million, net income was $10 million and diluted earnings per share were $0.97 per share in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2005. The Company anticipates that this information will be reflected in its financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2005.
