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

On November 16, 2023, Quantum Computing Inc. (the “Company”) received a deficiency notification letter from the Listing Qualifications Staff of the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) indicating that the Company was not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) because the bid price for the Company’s common stock had closed below $1.00 per share for the previous 30 consecutive business days.

In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company can regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement at any time within the 180 calendar day period following receipt of the Nasdaq notice, or until May 14, 2024. To regain compliance, the bid price for the Company’s common stock must close at $1.00 per share or more for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days.

Nasdaq’s written notice has no effect on the listing or trading of the Company’s common stock at this time. The Company intends to actively monitor the closing bid price of its common stock and, as appropriate, will consider available options to resolve this listing deficiency.

This Current Report on Form 8-K is filed to satisfy the obligation under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(b) and Item 3.01(a) of Form 8-K that the Company publicly disclose the deficiency.
