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

On May 11, 2021, Abraxas Petroleum Corporation (the “Company”) received a notice from the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) stating that the Company has not maintained the necessary minimum of $500,000 in net income from continuing operations in the most recently completed fiscal year, or two of the last three fiscal years, as required by Listing Rule 5550(b)(3) (the “Listing Rule”). The Company also does not presently meet the alternatives of market value of listed securities or stockholders equity, accordingly, the Company no longer complies with the Listing Rule.

The notice states that the Company has 45 calendar days to submit to Nasdaq a plan to regain compliance with the Listing Rules (the “Plan”). The Company is working to resolve this matter and expects to submit the Plan to Nasdaq within the 45 calendar day period. If Nasdaq accepts the Plan, then Nasdaq may grant the Company up to 180 calendar days from May 11, 2021 to evidence compliance.
