Key Financial Metrics
The filing text does not provide specific values for revenue, profit, cash flow, margins, debt, or liquidity. The document focuses exclusively on regulatory compliance status rather than financial performance data.
Material Changes and Listing Status
- Deficiency Notice: On October 16, 2020, the company received notice of failure to comply with NASDAQ Rule 5550(a)(2), which requires a minimum bid price of $1.00 per share.
- Trigger Event: The company failed to maintain a closing bid price of at least $1.00 per share for 30 consecutive business days (specifically from September 3, 2020, through October 15, 2020).
- Compliance Period: The company has been granted an initial 180-day compliance period ending April 14, 2021, to regain compliance.
Outlook, Risks, and Contingencies
To regain compliance within the initial period, the company must maintain a closing bid price of at least $1.00 for a minimum of ten consecutive business days. If the company fails to regain compliance by April 14, 2021, it may be eligible for an additional 180-day period, provided it meets all other initial listing standards for The Nasdaq Capital Market (excluding the bid price requirement) and submits written notice of its intent to cure. Failure to cure the deficiency in either period may result in delisting by NASDAQ.
Key Facts for Investor Verification
- Verify the current stock bid price to determine if the company has met the $1.00 threshold for ten consecutive days.
- Monitor the company's status regarding the April 14, 2021, deadline for the initial compliance period.
- Check for any subsequent filings regarding the company's ability to meet other Nasdaq Capital Market listing standards if a second compliance period is required.
- Confirm whether the company has issued any additional updates on its financial health or operational strategy to address the low stock price.
