EXHIBIT 99.1
Internet Gold Announces Withdrawing of the Appeal of NASDAQ Determination Regarding Delisting
Ramat Gan, Israel – November 27, 2019 - Internet Gold - Golden Lines Ltd. (the “Company” or "Internet-Gold") (NASDAQ Global Select Market and TASE: IGLD).
As disclosed on October 24, 2019, the Company received written notification (the “Notification”) from the Listing Qualifications staff of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) stating that the Company’s ordinary shares were subject to delisting from the Nasdaq Global Select Market, pending the Company’s opportunity to request a hearing before the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “Panel”). On October 30, 2019 the Company announced that it had requested a hearing before the Panel (the “Appeal”). At that time, we indicated that there can be no assurance that the Appeal would be successful. On November 21, 2019 the Company updated that following discussions with the Nasdaq Staff, it is considering whether to withdraw the Appeal.
After careful consideration, the Company today announced that following several discussions with the Nasdaq Staff and in order to limit the expenses for such Appeal process, the Board of Directors convened and decided to withdraw the Appeal.
The withdrawal of the Appeal is expected to result in a suspension from trading on Nasdaq on or about December 2, 2019 after which trading may still occur over the counter. The Company currently plans to maintain its listing on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange.
