PART III -- NARRATIVE
State below in reasonable detail the reasons why the Form 10-Q could not be filed within the prescribed time period.
SoundHound AI, Inc. (the “Company”) has determined that it is unable to file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2023 (the “Form 10-Q”) without unreasonable effort or expense. On November 9, 2023, the Company issued a press release (the “Press Release”) announcing its preliminary financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2023. The Company expects to file the Form 10-Q on November 15, 2023. The reason that the Company was unable to file timely is because the Company identified immaterial accounting errors related to historical financing transactions for certain prior periods, which will be revised in the Form 10-Q. The Company expects to report in the Form 10-Q material weaknesses in its internal control over financial reporting. As a result, the disclosure controls and procedures will be ineffective as of September 30, 2023.

If answer is no, identify report(s). |
☒ Yes ☐ No
| (3) | Is it anticipated that any significant change in results of operations from the corresponding period for the last fiscal year will be reflected by the earnings statements to be included in the subject report or portion thereof? |
☒ Yes ☐ No

On November 9, 2023, the Company issued the Press Release announcing its financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2023, which included a comparison to its results of operations from the corresponding periods in the last fiscal year. The financial results included in the Press Release are preliminary, unaudited and subject to change pending the completion of the Form 10-Q.
