Item
3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing
On
August 22, 2017, One Horizon Group, Inc. (the “Company” or “we”, “us”), received a written
notification from Nasdaq Listing Qualifications ("Nasdaq") notifying the Company that it fails to comply with Nasdaq's
Marketplace Rule 5550(b)(1) because the Company's stockholders' equity as of June 30, 2017 fell below the required minimum of
$2,500,000 and as of August 21, 2017 the Company does not meet the alternative compliance standards of market value of listed
securities or net income from continuing operations for continued listing.
In
accordance with Nasdaq's listing requirements, the Company has until October 6, 2017, 45 calendar days from the date of the notification,
to submit a plan to regain compliance. If the plan is accepted, Nasdaq can grant the Company an extension of up to 180 calendar
days from the date it received the notification to evidence compliance.
The
Company intends to promptly evaluate various courses of action to regain compliance and to timely submit a plan to Nasdaq to regain
compliance with the Nasdaq minimum stockholders' equity standard. However, there can be no assurance that the Company's plan will
be accepted or that if it is, the Company will be able to regain compliance.
Item
3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities
On
August 18, 2017, Martin Ward, our Chief Financial Officer, accepted the offer to convert $662,048 due to him from the Company
into 859,802 shares of common stock of the Company (the “Shares”). This represents a conversion price of $0.77 per
share, the closing price of the Company’s common stock on August 14, 2017.
The
issuance of the Shares was exempt from registration pursuant to Regulation S promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended. We made this determination based upon the fact that Mr. Ward is not a “U.S. person” as that term is defined
in Rule 902(k) of Regulation S under the Securities Act.
SIGNATURES
Pursuant
to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf
