Item 3.01   Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing
     On November 9, 2006, Pizza Inn, Inc. (the “Company”) received a staff delinquency notice from the Nasdaq Stock Exchange, LLP (“Nasdaq”) stating that, based upon information disclosed in the Company’s Form 10-Q for the period ended September 24, 2006, the Company fails to comply with the minimum shareholders’ equity, minimum market value of listed securities, and minimum net income requirements for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market, as set forth in Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(2)(B).
     If the Company does not provide Nasdaq, on or before November 24, 2006, with a specific plan to achieve and maintain compliance with at least one of the three listing requirements, or if Nasdaq determines that a plan submitted by the Company does not adequately address the deficiencies noted, the Company’s securities will thereafter be delisted. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to cure its noncompliance by achieving or sustaining these requirements, and as a result the Company may not be able to maintain its Nasdaq listing.

Re:   Pizza Inn, Inc. (the “Company”)
Nasdaq Symbol: PZZI
Dear Mr. McDonald:
Based on the Form 10-Q for the period ended September 24, 2006, Staff determined that the Company’s stockholders’ equity was $2,459,000. In addition, as of November, Staff determined that the market value of listed securities was $18,756,214.1 Finally, the Company reported net income/(loss) from continuing operations of $(5,989,000), $204,000, and $2,243,000, in its annual filings for the years ended June 25, 2006, June 26, 2005, and June 27, 2004, respectively. Accordingly, the Company does not comply with Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(2)(B), which requires the Company to have a minimum of $2,500,000 in stockholders’ equity or $35,000,000 market value of listed securities or $500,000 of net income from continuing operations for the most recently completed fiscal year or two of the three most recently completed fiscal years.
Under these circumstances, Staff is reviewing the Company’s eligibility for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market. To facilitate this review, please provide, on or before November 24, 2006, the Company’s specific plan to achieve and sustain compliance with all The Nasdaq Capital Market listing requirements, including the time frame for completion of the plan.2 The Company is encouraged to provide any relevant documentation, including but not limited to financial projections, agreements, offering circulars, letters of intent and contracts. Staff will contact the Company after reviewing the plan and notify you if we have any questions or concerns regarding the plan. If, after the conclusion of our review process, Staff determines that the Company’s plan does not adequately address the issues noted, we will provide written notification that its securities will be delisted. At that time, the Company may appeal Staff’s decision to a Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel.
 
1   Listed securities means securities quoted on Nasdaq or listed on a national securities exchange. The calculation is based on 10,138,494 shares outstanding as of November 1, 2006 multiplied by the closing inside bid price of $1.85.
 
2   In a case where an issuer fails to comply with the requirement of Rules 4310(c)(2)(B)(iii), 4320(e)(2)(B)(iii), or 4450(b)(1)(B), the Listings Qualifications Department shall not accept a plan to achieve compliance with those requirements in the future, since compliance requires stated levels of net income or assets and revenues during completed fiscal years and therefore can only be demonstrated through audited financial statements. Similarly, an issuer may not submit a plan relying on partial-year performance to demonstrate compliance with these standards.
