NOTIFICATION OF LATE FILING

Commission File Number: 001-35838

For Period Ended: December 31, 2024

For the Transition Period Ended:

Nothing in this form shall be construed to imply that the Commission has verified any information contained herein.

If the notification relates to a portion of the filing checked above, identify the Item(s) to which the notification relates: Not applicable

PART I - REGISTRANT INFORMATION

PART II - RULES 12b-25(b) AND (c)

If the subject report could not be filed without unreasonable effort or expense and the registrant seeks relief pursuant to Rule 12b-25(b), the following should be completed (Check box if appropriate).

PART III - NARRATIVE

State below in reasonable detail the reasons why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, 10-D, N-SAR, N-CSR or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed period.

Marin Software Incorporated (the “Company” or “we,” “us” and “our”) has determined that it is unable, without unreasonable effort or expense, to file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2025 (the “Quarterly Report”) by the prescribed filing date or the five-day extension permitted by the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

As previously announced, on April 9, 2025, the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) approved a Plan of Liquidation and Dissolution (the “Plan of Dissolution”), which provides for the dissolution and liquidation of the Company (the “Dissolution”) under the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”) and is currently seeking stockholder approval of the Plan of Dissolution at a special meeting currently scheduled for June 11, 2025 (the “Special Meeting”). If the stockholders approve the Dissolution pursuant to the Plan of Dissolution, the Company currently plans to file a Certificate of Dissolution with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware and proceed with the Dissolution in accordance with the Plan of Dissolution and DGCL as soon as practical following the Special Meeting; however, such filing may be delayed or not filed at all as determined by the Board in its sole discretion. In general terms, if the Company dissolves pursuant to the Plan of Dissolution, the Company will cease conducting its business, wind up its affairs, seek to dispose of its non-cash assets, pay or otherwise provide for its obligations, and distribute its remaining assets, if any, during a post-dissolution period. With respect to the Dissolution, the Company will follow the dissolution and winding up procedures prescribed by the DCGL and the Plan of Dissolution. Further information about the Dissolution is available in the Company’s Definitive Proxy Statement filed with the SEC on May 7, 2025.

PART IV - OTHER INFORMATION

(1) Name and telephone number of person to contact in regard to this notification:

(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 the answer is no, identify report(s).

o Yes x 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?

o Yes x 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.

Unaudited Results of Operations for the Quarter Ended March 31, 2025

The Company incurred a net loss of $0.9 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2025, primarily made up of revenue of $3.7 million, cost of sales of $1.3 million and operating expenses of $3.1 million. As of March 31, 2025, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $3.67 million. The preliminary amounts reported above have not been reviewed or audited by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. The Company believes that its results contained herein for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, are materially correct; however, because management's review is ongoing, there can be no assurance that the financial and accounting information referred to in this filing will not change.

Based on the funds we have available as of the date hereof and our history of recurring losses and negative operating cash flows, there is substantial doubt raised about our ability to continue as a going concern. We have initiated cost savings activities and are currently pursuing the Dissolution to liquidate and wind-up our operations, which we currently expect to be done as soon as reasonably practicable following the Special Meeting, assuming the approval of the Dissolution by the stockholders of the Company.
