On June 3, 2020, U.S. Well Services, Inc. (the “Company”), received written notice (the “Notice”) from the Listing Qualifications Staff of the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that the stockholders’ equity reported in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2020, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on May 11, 2020, does not satisfy the Nasdaq Capital Market continued listing requirement set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) (the “Stockholders’ Equity Requirement”). In addition, the Notice informed the Company that as of June 2, 2020, the Company did not meet the alternative compliance standards relating to the market value of listed securities or net income from continuing operations (the “Alternative Compliance Standards”).

The Company has a period of 45 calendar days from the date of the Notice, or until July 20, 2020, to submit a plan to regain compliance with the Stockholders’ Equity Requirement or the Alternative Compliance Standards (the “Plan”). If the Company’s Plan is accepted, Nasdaq may grant an extension of up to 180 calendar days from the date of the Notice for the Company to regain compliance.

The Company is presently evaluating potential actions to regain compliance with all applicable requirements and intends to timely submit a Plan to Nasdaq to regain compliance with the Stockholders’ Equity Requirement or the Alternative Compliance Standards. Although the Company believes it will be able to regain compliance, there can be no assurance the Company’s Plan will be accepted by Nasdaq or that if it is, the Company will be able to regain compliance with the Stockholders’ Equity Requirement, the Alternative Compliance Standards or will otherwise be in compliance with the other listing requirements set forth in the Nasdaq’s listing rules.

The Notice has no immediate effect on the listing or trading of the Company’s common stock, which will continue to be listed and traded on Nasdaq during this period, subject to the Company’s compliance with other listing standards, under the symbol “USWS.”

Forward-Looking Statements

The information above 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. All statements, other than statements of historical facts, included herein are forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements may be identified by their use of terms and phrases such as “may,” “expect,” “believe,” “intend,” “estimate,” “project,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “will,” “should,” “could,” and similar terms and phrases. Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable, they do involve certain assumptions, risks and uncertainties. These forward-looking statements represent the Company’s current expectations or beliefs concerning future events, and it is possible that the results described in this Current Report on Form 8-K will not be achieved. For example, there can be no assurance that the Company will regain compliance with the Stockholders’ Equity Requirement or the Alternative Compliance Standards during any compliance period or otherwise in the future, otherwise meet Nasdaq compliance standards, or that Nasdaq will grant the Company any relief from delisting as necessary or whether the Company can agree to or ultimately meet applicable Nasdaq requirements for any such relief. These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions identified in this release or as disclosed from time to time in the Company’s filings with the  SEC. Factors that could cause actual results to differ from the Company’s expectations include changes in market conditions and other factors described in the Company’s public disclosures and filings with the SEC, including those described under “Risk Factors” in its annual report on Form 10-K filed on March 5, 2020 and in its quarterly reports on Form 10-Q. As a result of these factors, actual results may differ materially from those indicated or implied by forward-looking statements.

Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made, and, except as required by law, the Company does not undertake any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. New factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all such factors.
