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

On October 16, 2025, Aethlon Medical, Inc. (the "Company") received a notification letter (the "Notice") from the Listing Qualifications Department (the "Staff") of the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC ("Nasdaq") notifying the Company that, because the closing bid price for the Company's common stock was below $1.00 per share for 30 consecutive business days, the Company was not in compliance with the minimum bid price requirement for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market, as set forth in Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5550(a)(2) (the "Minimum Bid Price Requirement") and subject to the compliance and delisting provisions of Rule 5810(c)(3)(A) and (iv) thereunder.

The Company has filed a request for a hearing before the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the "Panel"). The hearing request will automatically stay any suspension or delisting action by Nasdaq pending the panel's decision, and the Company's common stock will continue to trade on Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol "AEMD".

As part of its plan to regain compliance with Nasdaq listing requirements, the Company has already implemented a 1-for-10 reverse stock split of its common stock, which became effective on October 16 and began trading on October 20, 2025. The Company is monitoring the closing bid price of its common stock and will evaluate additional actions as appropriate to maintain its listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market.

Certain information contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K includes "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. We may, in some cases, use terms such as "intends," "believes," "potential," "anticipates," "estimates," "expects," "plans," "may," "could," "might," "likely," "will," "should" or other words that convey the uncertainty of the future events or outcomes to identify these forward-looking statements.

Any or all of the forward-looking statements may turn out to be wrong or be affected by assumptions we make that later turn out to be incorrect or by known or unknown risks and uncertainties. These forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, including risks related to our ability to regain compliance with Nasdaq's continued listing requirements or otherwise maintain compliance with any other listing requirement of the Nasdaq Capital Market, the potential delisting of our shares from the Nasdaq Capital Market due to our failure to comply with the applicable rules, and the other risks set forth in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. For all these reasons, actual results and developments could be materially different from those expressed in or implied by our forward-looking statements. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which are made only as of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K. We undertake no obligation to publicly update such forward-looking statements to reflect subsequent events or circumstances unless required by law.
