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

On May 25, 2021, Bite Acquisition Corp. (the "Company") received a notice (the "Notice") from the staff of NYSE Regulation of the New York Stock Exchange (the "NYSE") indicating that the Company is now subject to the procedures set forth in Section 802.01E of the NYSE Listed Company Manual (the "Manual") due to a delay in filing its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2021 (the "Form 10-Q") with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). The Notice has no immediate effect on the listing or trading of the Company's securities on the NYSE.

The NYSE informed the Company that, under Section 802.01E of the Manual, the Company has until November 24, 2021 to file the Form 10-Q with the SEC. If the Company does not file the Form 10-Q by that date, the NYSE may grant, in its sole discretion, a further extension of up to six additional months for the Company to regain compliance, depending on the specific circumstances. The Notice indicates that the NYSE may nevertheless commence delisting proceedings at any time during the cure period, if circumstances warrant.

As the Company reported in its Form 12b-25 filed with the SEC on May 18, 2021, the Company has reassessed its accounting for its warrants issued in February 2021 in light of the statement issued by the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 12, 2021 on Accounting and Reporting Considerations for Warrants Issued by Special Purpose Acquisition Companies ("SPACs"). Based on this reassessment, management determined that the Company's private warrants should be classified as liabilities measured at fair value upon issuance, with subsequent changes in fair value reported in the Company's statement of operations each reporting period, which has resulted in a delay in finalizing the financial statements. The Company continues to work diligently to complete the Form 10-Q as soon as reasonably practicable with the intention of regaining compliance, and currently expects to file the Form 10-Q with the SEC on or about June 3, 2021.




Item 8.01. Other Events.



On June 2, 2021, the Company issued a press release announcing its receipt of the Notice. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
