Item 3.01

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

As previously disclosed, on March 8, 2024, Plus Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company”) received a written notice (the “Notice”) from the Listing Qualifications staff of The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that it no longer complies with the requirement under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) to maintain a minimum of $2.5 million in stockholders’ equity (the “Minimum Stockholders’ Equity Requirement”) for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market or the alternative requirements of having a market value of listed securities of $35 million or net income from continuing operations of $500,000 in the most recently completed fiscal year or two of the last three most recently completed fiscal years (the “Alternative Standards”). The Notice stated that the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, disclosed stockholders’ equity of ($1,348,000) as of December 31, 2023, and that, as of March 8, 2024, the Company did not meet the Alternative Standards. As required by Nasdaq, the Company submitted its plan to regain compliance with the Minimum Stockholders’ Equity Requirement on April 22, 2024.

On September 5, 2024, the Company received a letter from Nasdaq (the “Letter”) notifying the Company that it had not regained compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) and that, as a result, unless the Company timely requests an appeal of this determination to a Nasdaq Hearings Panel, Nasdaq would move to suspend trading of the Company’s common stock and to have the Company’s shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, delisted from The Nasdaq Capital Market. Accordingly, the Company intends to timely appeal the determination, which will automatically stay any suspension or delisting action pending the Hearings Panel’s decision and the expiration of any additional extension period granted by the Hearings Panel following the hearing. As a result, the Company’s shares of common stock is expected to remain listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market through at least that time. There can be no assurance, however, that the Hearings Panel will grant the Company’s request for continued listing or that the Company will be able to demonstrate compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) within any additional compliance period that may be granted by the Hearings Panel.
