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

On May 12, 2023, Edgio, Inc. (“Edgio” or the “Company”) received a notification letter (the “Notice”) from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) indicating that, as a result of the Company’s delay in filing its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2023 (the “Form 10-Q”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), and because the Company remains delinquent in filing its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2022 (the “Initial Delinquent Filing”), the Company is not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) (the “Rule”), which requires Nasdaq-listed companies to timely file all required periodic financial reports with the SEC.

The Company previously reported in its Notification of Late Filing on Form 12b-25, filed with the SEC on March 13, 2023, and in its Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the SEC on March 13, 2023, that the Company was unable to file its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 within the prescribed time period, and reported in its Notification of Late Filing on Form 12b-25, filed with the SEC on May 10, 2023, that the Company was unable to file its Form 10-Q within the prescribed time period, due to an error in accounting for sales of Edgio’s Open Edge solution which resulted in the Company’s plan to restate its previously issued financials.

The Notice has no immediate effect on the listing of the Company’s common stock on the Nasdaq Global Market. The Company has until May 22, 2023 to submit a plan to regain compliance with the Rule. If Nasdaq accepts the Company’s plan, Nasdaq may grant the Company an exception of up to 180 calendar days from the due date of the Initial Delinquent Filing, or until September 12, 2023, to regain compliance. The Company intends to file the Form 10-Q as promptly as possible in order to regain compliance with the Rule. If Nasdaq does not accept the Company’s plan, the Company will have the opportunity to appeal that decision to a Nasdaq Hearings Panel.
