Airspan Networks Holdings Inc. (“Airspan” or the “Company”) is filing this Notification of Late Filing on Form 12b-25 with respect to its Annual Report on Form 10-K as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023 (the “Form 10-K”). The Company has determined that it is unable to file its Form 10-K within the prescribed time period without unreasonable effort or expense for the reasons set forth below.

As previously disclosed, on March 31, 2024, the Company and certain of its direct and indirect subsidiaries filed voluntary petitions (the “Chapter 11 Cases”) for relief under chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware. The Chapter 11 Cases are jointly administered under Case No. 24-10621.

Due to the considerable time and resources needed to address the ongoing Chapter 11 Cases, and the resulting diversion of the attention of the Company’s management and other personnel responsible for preparation of the Form 10-K, the Company will be unable to file the Annual Report within the extension period provided by Rule 12b-25 under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. In addition, due to liquidity issues in the first quarter of 2024, the Company’s management was not able to complete the audit of the Company’s financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Part IV — Other Information

Name and telephone number of person to contact in regard to this notification

	David Brant		(561) 893-8670
	(Name)		(Telephone Number)

(2)

Have all other periodic reports required under Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or Section 30 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 during the preceding 12 months or for such shorter period that the registrant was required to file such report(s) been filed? 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

If so, attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both narratively and quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reasons why a reasonable estimate of the results cannot be made.

The Company’s results of operations for the three and twelve month periods ended December 31, 2023 differed significantly from its results of operations for the three and twelve month periods ended December 31, 2022 due to the significant adverse developments that occurred with respect to the Company’s business and liquidity, including events preceding the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases.

The Company will begin to file monthly operating reports with the Bankruptcy Court related to periods subsequent to March 31, 2024. Bankruptcy Court filings and other documents related to the Chapter 11 Cases are available at a website maintained by the Company’s claims agent, Epiq Corporate Restructuring, LLC, at https://dm.epiq11.com/Airspan.
