Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or
Standard; Transfer of Listing.
On March 4, 2022, Eargo, Inc. (the "Company" or "Eargo") received a letter from
the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC ("Nasdaq")
indicating that, because the Company has not yet filed its Annual Report on Form
10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 (the "Form 10-K"), the Company
does not comply with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) for continued listing.
As previously disclosed, on November 18, 2021, the Company was notified by
Nasdaq that it was not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) for
continued listing as a result of the delay in filing its Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2021. In accordance with Nasdaq
Listing Rules, the Company submitted a plan to regain compliance.
As previously disclosed, Nasdaq subsequently granted the Company an exception
until May 16, 2022 to file its delinquent Form 10-Q for the period ended
September 30, 2021 (the "Initial Delinquent Filing"). Nasdaq's March 4 letter
indicated that any additional exception to allow the Company to regain
compliance with all delinquent filings will be limited to a maximum of 180
calendar days from the due date of the Initial Delinquent Filing, or May 16,
2022.
As a result of this additional delinquency, the Company must submit an update to
its original plan to regain compliance with respect to the filing requirement by
March 21, 2022. The Company intends to submit a timely update to its original
plan.

Nasdaq notification letter referenced above is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
