Item 3.01. Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
 
On April 3, 2023, RBB Bancorp (the “Company”) received a notice (the “Notice”) from The NASDAQ Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) stating that because the Company has not yet filed its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 (the “Form 10-K”), the Company is no longer in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1). Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) requires listed companies to timely file all required periodic financial reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).
 
The Company was unable to file the Form 10-K, without unreasonable effort and expense, as the Company needed more time to complete the Sarbanes-Oxley Act ("SOX") control procedures, review of the annual financial statements and the Form 10-K. The Company filed the Form 10-K on April 7, 2023.
 
On April 7, 2023, the Company issued a press release announcing its receipt of the Notice. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
