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

On September 11, 2008, SMF Energy Corporation (the “Company”) was notified that the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel (the “Panel”) granted the Company’s request for an extension of time to regain compliance with the $1.00 minimum bid price continued listing requirement set forth in Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(4) until December 23, 2008.

The Panel’s decision was based on the Company’s declared intention to complete a reverse stock split by submitting it for approval at its upcoming shareholders meeting, and for the reverse stock split to take effect. Under the terms of the extension, the Company is required to have a closing bid price of $1.00 or more for a minimum of ten prior consecutive trading days on or before December 23, 2008, and to otherwise maintain compliance with all other applicable Nasdaq listing standards.
