PART III - NARRATIVE

State below in reasonable detail the reasons why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, 10-D, N-CEN, N-CSR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period.

Luna Innovations Incorporated (the “Company”) is filing this Notification of Late Filing on Form 12b-25 with respect to its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2024 (the “Form 10-Q”). The Company is unable to file the Form 10-Q within the prescribed time period without unreasonable effort or expense.

On March 12, 2024 and April 19, 2024, the Company filed separate Current Reports on Form 8-K (the “Prior 8-K Reports”) disclosing, among other things, that a Special Committee (the “Special Committee”) of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of the Company has been conducting an independent review, with the assistance of external legal and financial advisors, of certain revenue recognition matters in connection with the Company’s previously issued financial statements. Additionally, as disclosed in the Prior 8-K Reports, the Audit Committee (the “Audit Committee”) of the Board, based on preliminary findings of the review, and after consultation with the Company’s management and the Special Committee’s external legal and financial advisors, has concluded that the Company’s previously issued financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2022 (the “2022 Financial Statements”), as well as the Company’s previously issued interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for each of the periods ended March 31, 2022, June 30, 2022, September 30, 2022, March 31, 2023, June 30, 2023 and September 30, 2023 (collectively, with the 2022 Financial Statements, the “Affected Financial Statements”), should no longer be relied upon and should be restated due to identified accounting errors in each of the Affected Financial Statements relating to revenue recognition.

The description of the restatements and accounting errors in this report is preliminary, unaudited and subject to further change in connection with the ongoing review and the completion of the restatements of the Affected Financial Statements. Additionally, as the independent review has not yet been completed, the Company has not yet determined the full extent of the impact on the Affected Financial Statements and whether and to what extent there may be an impact on financial statements for any other periods. Accordingly, there can be no assurance as to the actual effects of the restatements or that the Company will not determine to restate any financial statements in addition to the Affected Financial Statements or with respect to any additional accounting errors.

Although the Company cannot at this time estimate when it will file its restated financial statements, the Company is diligently pursuing completion of the restatements and intends to make such filings as soon as reasonably practicable following the completion of the review and the restatements.

As a result of the required restatements, additional time is needed to complete tasks and steps necessary to prepare and finalize the Company’s quarterly financial statements and other disclosures required to be included in the Form 10-Q, as well as to complete the ongoing preparation and filing of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 (the “Form 10-K”). There can be no assurance as to when the review will be completed or when the Company will be able to complete the preparation and filing of the Form 10-Q and the Form 10-K. However, the Company currently does not expect to file the Form 10-Q within the extension period of five calendar days provided under Rule 12b-25 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

If answer is no, identify report(s). o Yes x No The Company has not filed its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023.

(3)									Is it anticipated that any significant change in results of operations from the corresponding period for the last fiscal year will be reflected by the earnings statements to be included in the subject report or portion thereof? x Yes o No

If so: attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both narratively and quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reasons why a reasonable estimate of the results cannot be made.

The Company anticipates that there will be a significant change in results of operations from the corresponding period for the last fiscal year that will be reflected by the earnings statements to be included in the Form 10-Q. However, due to the independent review described above, the Company at this time cannot estimate the amount of the change as it has not fully completed its review.
