Item 8.01 Other Events.
 
On February 20, 2024, Genprex, Inc. (the “Company”) received a letter from the Listing Qualifications Department (the “Staff”) of The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) stating that the Company has regained compliance with the minimum bid price requirement for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Minimum Bid Price Requirement”) and the Minimum Bid Price Requirement matter is now closed. The letter was pursuant to a previous letter received on August 30, 2023 from Nasdaq Staff indicating, as previously reported, that the Company was not then in compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement because the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share, had failed to maintain a minimum bid price of $1.00 or more for 30 consecutive business days.
