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

On November 12, 2018, LM Funding America, Inc. (the “Company”) received a letter from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) stating that, as a result of the Company’s bid price remaining above $1 per share for the requisite period of time, Nasdaq has determined that the Company has regained compliance with Listing Rule 5550(a)(2).  

In addition, by letter dated November 13, 2018, Nasdaq further advised the Company that it had been deemed in compliance with all applicable requirements for continued listing, including the $2.5 million stockholders’ equity requirement, as set forth in Listing Rule 5550(b), the public float requirement of 500,000 shares, as set forth in Listing  Rule 5550(a)(4), and the requirement for continued listing of warrants, as set forth in Listing Rule 5560(a).

The Company had previously requested a hearing before a Nasdaq Hearings Panel to address the listing issues; however, as a result of the above described Nasdaq compliance determinations, the hearing has been canceled and the listing review has been closed.
