PART III - NARRATIVE

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

Vinco Ventures, Inc. (the “Registrant”) is unable, without unreasonable effort or expense, to file its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 (the “Annual Report”) by the March 31, 2022 filing deadline applicable to smaller reporting companies due to a delay experienced by the Registrant in completing its financial statements and other disclosures in the Annual Report. As a result, the Registrant is still in the process of compiling required information to complete the Annual Report and its independent registered public accounting firm requires additional time to complete its review of the financial statements for the period ended December 31, 2021 to be incorporated in the Annual Report. The Registrant anticipates that it will file the Annual Report no later than the fifteenth calendar day following the prescribed filing date.

PART IV - OTHER INFORMATION

(1) Name and telephone number of person to contact in regard to this notification

Lisa King		(866)		900-0992
(Name)		(Area Code)		(Telephone Number)

(2) Have all other periodic reports required under Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or Section 30 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 during the preceding 12 months or for such shorter period that the registrant was required to file such report(s) been filed? If answer is no, identify report(s). Yes ☒ No ☐

(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? Yes ☒ 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.

Consistent with its results for the second and third quarters of 2021, the Company will report a net loss for the year ended December 31, 2021 that is significantly greater than the net loss reported for the year ended December 31, 2020. The increase in net loss is primarily due to the significant impact of (i) losses on issuance and change in fair value of warrants issued by the Company during 2021 that qualify for warrant liability treatment, (ii) of stock-based compensation costs, and (iii) amortization of deferred financing costs.
