Other Events |
On July 18, 2019, Nova LifeStyle, Inc. (the “Company”) received confirmation from The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) that its application to transfer the listing of its common stock from the Nasdaq Global Market to the Nasdaq Capital Market (the “Capital Market”) had been approved. The Company’s common stock began trading on the Capital Market on July 19, 2019.
As previously disclosed in our Form 8-K filed with SEC on January 22, 2019, Nasdaq notified the Company that its listed security no longer met the minimum $1 bid price per share requirement (the “Minimum Bid Price Requirement”) on January 18, 2019.
The Company has not been able to regain compliance within the 180 day period from the date of that notification or until July 17, 2019 (the “First Compliance Period”). However, Nasdaq has determined that the Company is eligible for an additional 180 calendar day period, or until January 13, 2020 (the “Second Compliance Period”). If at any time before the expiration of the Second Compliance Period the bid price of the Company’s common stock closes at or above $1.00 per share for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days, Nasdaq will provide written notification that the Company has achieved compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. If the Company does not regain compliance by the end of the Second Compliance Period, Nasdaq may provide written notification to the Company that the Company’s common stock will be delisted. At that time, the Company may appeal Nasdaq’s delisting determination to a Nasdaq Listing Hearings Panel.
The Company intends to continue actively monitoring the bid price for its common stock between now and the expiration of the Second Compliance Period and will consider available options to resolve the deficiency and regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement, including a reverse stock split, if necessary.
