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

On September 12, 2018, Westwater Resources, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), received notice that the Listing Qualifications Department of the Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) has granted the Company an additional 180 days to regain compliance with Nasdaq’s $1.00 per share minimum bid price requirement under Nasdaq Marketplace Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), which will end on March 11, 2019. Previously, on March 13, 2018, Nasdaq notified the Company that it did not meet the minimum bid price requirement required for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market, and the Company was given until September 10, 2018 to achieve compliance.

This second notice has no immediate effect on the Company’s Nasdaq listing and the Company’s shares will continue to trade under the symbol “WWR,” subject to the Company regaining compliance as discussed below.

The Company will regain compliance with the minimum bid requirement if at any time before March 11, 2019 the bid price for the Company’s common stock closes at $1.00 per share or above for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days.  If the Company fails to regain compliance on or prior to March 11, 2019, the Company’s stock will be subject to delisting by Nasdaq, unless the Company timely requests a hearing before a Nasdaq Hearings Panel. The request for a hearing will stay any suspension or delisting action pending the issuance of the decision of the Nasdaq Hearings Panel following the hearing and the expiration of any additional extension granted by the Nasdaq Hearings Panel.

The Company intends to actively monitor the bid price of its common stock and will consider available options to regain compliance with the listing requirements.
