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

On November 27, 2023, Bowflex Inc. (the “Company”) received written notice (the “Notice”) from the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) that it was not in compliance with the continued listing standard set forth in Section 802.01B of the NYSE Listed Company Manual because its average global market capitalization over a consecutive 30 trading-day period was less than $50.0 million and, at the same time, its last reported stockholders’ equity was less than $50.0 million.

The Company plans to notify the NYSE by December 11, 2023, of its receipt of the Notice and that it intends to submit a plan (the “Plan”) to cure the global market capitalization deficiency and to return to compliance with Section 802.01B of the NYSE continued listing standards. Under Section 802.02 of the NYSE Listed Company Manual, the Company has 45 days from the receipt of the Notice to submit a plan advising the NYSE of definitive action the Company has taken, or is taking, which would bring the Company into compliance with the minimum global market capitalization listing standard within 18 months of receipt of the Notice (the “Market Capitalization Cure Period”).

The Notice has no immediate impact on the listing of the Company’s common stock and does not affect the Company’s business operations or its reporting obligations with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure

On December 1, 2023, the Company issued a press release related to the foregoing. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report and is incorporated by reference to this Item 7.01.

The information in this Item 7.01, including Exhibit 99.1, is being furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and is not to be incorporated by reference into any filing by Company under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, regardless of any general incorporation language contained in such filing, unless otherwise expressly stated in such filing.
