Phunware, Inc. (NASDAQ:PHUN) notified The Nasdaq Stock Market on Thursday that it is not in compliance with Nasdaq’s audit committee requirements following a recent executive appointment, according to a statement issued in a press release and detailed in a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The company reported that Rahul Mewawalla resigned from its audit committee after being appointed Executive Chairman and Chief Artificial Intelligence Architect on July 13. Nasdaq Listing Rule 5605 requires listed companies to maintain an audit committee with at least three independent members. With Mr. Mewawalla’s resignation, Phunware’s audit committee now consists of two members, Elliot Han and Quyen Du, both of whom are considered independent under Nasdaq rules.
Mr. Mewawalla had also served as the committee’s “audit committee financial expert,” a role defined by the SEC and Nasdaq as requiring financial sophistication. The company stated that it has not yet determined if either Mr. Han or Ms. Du meets the criteria for this designation.
Phunware indicated that it is reviewing options to regain compliance with Nasdaq’s audit committee requirements within the cure period provided by the exchange but noted there is no assurance of regaining compliance or maintaining adherence to other Nasdaq listing standards.
The information is based on a press release statement and a Form 8-K filing with the SEC.
