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

As previously disclosed, on November 22, 2022, ContraFect Corporation (the “Company”) received a letter (the “Nasdaq Staff Deficiency Letter”) from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) indicating that the Company’s stockholders’ equity as reported in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2022 (the “Form 10-Q”), did not satisfy the continued listing requirement under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) for the Nasdaq Capital Market, which requires that a listed company’s stockholders’ equity be at least $2.5 million. As reported on its Form 10-Q, the Company’s stockholders’ equity as of September 30, 2022 was approximately $(3.1) million. The Company is also not currently in compliance with the Nasdaq continued listing requirement that the Company maintain a bid price for the Company’s common stock of above $1.00 per share (the “Bid Price Requirement”). Subsequent to the receipt of the Nasdaq Staff Deficiency Letter, and prior to the deadline set forth in such letter, the Company submitted a plan to regain compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) to Nasdaq.

On January 20, 2023, the Nasdaq staff (“Staff”) informed the Company that the Staff had determined to deny the Company’s request for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market (the “Staff Determination”) and that, unless the Company requests an appeal of such determination, trading of the Company’s common stock will be suspended at the opening of business on January 31, 2023 and a Form 25-NSE will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), which will remove the Company’s securities from listing and registration on the Nasdaq Capital Market. In reaching its decision, the Staff indicated that its determination was based on concerns that the Company’s ability to raise additional capital through the exercise of recently issued warrants to purchase the Company’s common stock or other capital raising transactions, in order to cure the Company’s non-compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1), were not within the Company’s control and such funds may be insufficient to sustain compliance over the long term.

The Company intends to request a hearing before a Nasdaq Hearings Panel (“Panel”) to appeal the Staff Determination. The Staff Determination letter indicates that the Company’s hearing request will stay the suspension of trading and delisting of the Company’s common stock pending the conclusion of the hearing process. Consequently, the Company’s common stock will remain listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market at least until the Panel renders a decision following the hearing. There can be no assurance that the Panel’s decision will grant the Company’s request for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market.

The Company continues to evaluate various alternative courses of action to regain compliance with the Nasdaq Capital Market listing requirements. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to satisfy the Nasdaq Capital Market’s continued listing requirements, regain compliance with the minimum stockholders’ equity requirement or the Bid Price Requirement, or maintain compliance with the other listing requirements.
