Item 3.01. Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
On March 21, 2017, NCI, Inc. (the Company) received a written notice (the Notice) from the Listing Qualifications Department of the NASDAQ Stock Market (NASDAQ), stating that the Company is not in compliance with NASDAQ Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) for continued listing because the Company has not timely filed its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016 (the Form 10-K) with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The Notice was issued in accordance with standard NASDAQ procedures and has no immediate effect on the listing or trading of the Companys common stock on the NASDAQ Global Select Market.
As previously disclosed in the Companys Notification of Late Filing on Form 12b-25 filed on March 16, 2017, the delay relates to the timing of the previously announced internal investigation initiated by the Company following its discovery that the Companys former controller had been embezzling money from the Company.
The Notice indicates that the Company has until May 22, 2017 to submit a plan to regain compliance with the NASDAQ continued listing standards. The Company expects to file its Form 10-K as soon as reasonably practicable and intends to do so by May 22, 2017, and thereby regain compliance with the NASDAQ continued listing standards and eliminate the requirement to submit a plan of compliance to NASDAQ.
On March 24, 2017, the Company issued a press release disclosing the receipt of the Notice. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this report and incorporated herein by reference.
