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

On May 20, 2020, Phunware, Inc. (the "Company") received a written notification (the “Notice”) from the Listing Qualifications Staff of the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that based on the Company's stockholders' equity balance of $1,353,000 as reported in the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 15, 2020, it is no longer in compliance with the minimum stockholders' equity requirement for continued inclusion on the Nasdaq Capital Market under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) (the “Stockholders' Equity Requirement”). In addition, the Notice informed the Company that as of May 19, 2020 it did not meet the alternative compliance standards relating to the market value of listed securities or net income from continuing operations (the "Alternative Compliance Standards").

The Notice has no immediate effect on the listing of the Company's securities on the Nasdaq Capital Market. Under the Nasdaq Listing Rules, the Company has a period of 45 calendar days from the date of the Notice, or until July 6, 2020, to submit a plan to regain compliance with the Stockholders' Equity Requirement. If the Company's plan to regain compliance is accepted, Nasdaq may grant an extension of up to 180 calendar days from the date of the Notice to regain compliance.

The Company is presently evaluating potential actions to regain compliance with all applicable requirements and intends to timely submit a plan to Nasdaq to regain compliance with the Stockholders' Equity Requirement. Although the Company believes it will be able regain compliance, there can be no assurance the Company's plan will be accepted by Nasdaq or that if it is, the Company will be able to regain compliance with the Stockholders’ Equity Requirement, the Alternative Compliance Standards or will otherwise be in compliance with other Nasdaq Listing Rules.
