PART III – NARRATIVE
State below in reasonable detail why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, 10-D, N-CEN, N-CSR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period.
The Arena Group Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) is engaged in active discussions regarding potential strategic and financing transactions. The Company’s efforts related to negotiating these potential strategic and financing transactions and evaluating them, have required a significant amount of Company time and resources and the Company therefore requires additional time to complete and finalize the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2023 (the “Q2 2023 Form 10-Q”). The Company has determined that the filing of its Q2 2023 Form 10-Q will not be completed within the prescribed time frame without unreasonable effort or expense. The Company believes that it is in the best interest of the Company and its shareholders to postpone filing of the Q2 2023 Form 10-Q for a period of up to five calendar days. There can be no assurance that any strategic or financing transaction will be successful or that any such strategic or financing transaction will be available on terms acceptable to the Company. The Company expects to file the Q2 2023 Form 10-Q on August 14, 2023, within five calendar days following the prescribed filing date.
