LM FUNDING AMERICA, INC. (NASDAQ:LMFA) Files An 8-K Results of Operations and Financial Condition
Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

On May 14, 2018, LM Funding America, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing its financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017.

The information furnished in this Item 2.02, including Exhibit 99.1, is not deemed to be “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to liability under that Section. This information will not be deemed to be incorporated by reference into any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except to the extent that the Company specifically incorporates it by reference.

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

On May 8, 2018 LM Funding America, Inc. (the “Company”) received notification from the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) indicating that the Company’s common stock (the “Common Stock”) was subject to potential delisting from Nasdaq because, for a period of thirty (30) consecutive business days, the bid price of the Common Stock had closed below the minimum $1.00 per share requirement for continued inclusion under Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Bid Price Rule”). The notification had no immediate effect on the listing or trading of the Common Stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market.

Nasdaq stated in its letter that in accordance with the Nasdaq Listing Rules the Company has been provided an initial period of 180 calendar days, or until November 5, 2018, to regain compliance. The letter states that the Nasdaq Staff will provide written notification that the Company has achieved compliance with the minimum bid price listing requirement if at any time before November 5, 2018, the bid price of the Common Stock closes at $1.00 per share or more for a minimum of ten (10) consecutive business days.

If the Company is unable to regain compliance by November 5, 2018, the Company may be eligible for an additional 180 calendar day compliance period to demonstrate compliance with the bid price requirement. To qualify for the additional 180 day period, the Company will be required to meet the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares set forth in Market Place Rule 5550(a) and all other initial listing standards for the Nasdaq Capital Market set forth in Marketplace Rule 5505, with the exception of the bid price requirement, and will need to provide written notice to Nasdaq of its intention to cure the deficiency during the second compliance period by effecting a reverse stock split, if necessary. If the Company does not qualify for the second compliance period or fails to regain compliance during the second 180-day period, then Nasdaq will notify the Company of its determination to delist the Common Stock, at which point the Company would have an opportunity to appeal the delisting determination to a Hearings Panel.

The Company intends to monitor the closing bid price of the Common Stock and may, if appropriate, consider implementing available options to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement under the Nasdaq Listing Rules.
