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

On December 7, 2023, Moatable Inc. (the “Company”) received written notice (the “Notice”) from the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) that the Company is below compliance criteria pursuant to the continued listing standards set forth in Section 802.01C of the NYSE Listed Company Manual as the average closing price of the Company’s American depositary shares (the “ADSs”) is less than US$1.00 over a consecutive 30 trading-day period.

In accordance with applicable NYSE procedures, the Company plans to notify the NYSE its intent to cure the deficiency. Pursuant to Section 802.01C of the NYSE Listed Company Manual, the Company has a period of six months following the receipt of the Notice to regain compliance with the minimum share price requirement. The Company can regain compliance with the minimum share price requirement at any time during the six-month cure period if, on the last trading day of any calendar month during the cure period or on the last day of the cure period, the Company has (i) a closing share price of at least $1.00, and (ii) an average closing share price of at least $1.00 over the 30 trading-day period ending on such date.

The Notice has no immediate impact on the listing of the Company’s ADSs, which will continue to be listed and traded on the NYSE during the applicable cure period, subject to the Company’s compliance with the other continued listing requirements of the NYSE. The Company’s ADSs will continue to trade on the NYSE under the symbol “MTBL” but will have an added designation of “.BC” to indicate the Company is not in compliance with the NYSE’s continued listing standards. Failure to satisfy the conditions of the cure period or to maintain other listing requirements could lead to a delisting.

The Notice does not affect the ongoing business operations of the Company or its reporting requirements with the Securities and Exchange Commission nor does it trigger any violation of its debt obligations.

Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.

As required by Section 802.01C of the NYSE Listed Company Manual, the Company issued a press release on December 12, 2023, announcing that it had received the Notice. A copy of the press release is furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated in this Item 7.01 by reference.

The information in this Current Report on Form 8-K and the Exhibit attached hereto shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Exchange Act, regardless of any general incorporation language in such filing.

Exhibit 99.1

Moatable Announces Receipt of NYSE Non-compliance Letter Regarding ADS Trading Price

Phoenix, Arizona, December 12, 2023 — Moatable, Inc. (NYSE: MTBL) (“Moatable” or the “Company”), which operates two US-based SaaS businesses, Chime Technologies Inc.© and Trucker Path Inc.©, today announced that it has received a letter from the New York Stock Exchange (the "NYSE") dated December 7, 2023, notifying Moatable that it is below compliance criteria as the average closing price of the Company's American depositary shares (the "ADSs") was $0.99 during the 30 trading-day period ended December 6, 2023.

Under Section 802.01C of the NYSE Listed Company Manual, a company will be considered to be below compliance criteria if the average closing price of a security as reported on the consolidated tape is less than US$1.00 over a consecutive 30 trading-day period. Following receipt of the notification, the Company has six months, i.e., by June 7, 2024, to regain compliance with the minimum share price requirement.

The Company can regain compliance at any time during the six-month cure period if the Company’s ADS has a closing share price of at least US $1.00 and an average closing share price of at least $1.00 over the 30 trading-day period ending on the last trading day of that month or the last trading day of the cure period. In the event that at the expiration of the six-month cure period, both a $1.00 closing share price on the last trading day of the cure period and a $1.00 average closing share price over the 30 trading-day period ending on the last trading day of the cure period are not attained, the NYSE will commence suspension and delisting procedures.

To address this issue, Moatable intends to monitor the market conditions of its listed securities and is considering the options.
