Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

 

On July 2, 2019, iFresh, Inc. (the “Company”) received a notification letter (the “Notification”) from the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Staff of The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) stating that the Company is no longer in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule. Nasdaq 5550(b)(3) requires listed companies to maintain net income of $500,000 from continuing operations in the most recently completed fiscal year, or in two of the three most recently completed fiscal years. The Company’s Form 10-K for the period ended March 31, 2019 reported net loss from continuing operations of $12,003,443, below the net income requirement set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d)(3). Further, as of July 1, 2019, the Company did not meet the alternative compliance standards under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b) of (i) market value of listed securities of at least $35 million, or (ii) stockholders' equity of at least $2.5 million.

 

The notification received has no immediate effect on the listing of the Company’s common stock on Nasdaq. Under the Nasdaq Listing Rules, the Company has until August 16, 2019 to submit a plan to regain compliance (the “Compliance Plan”). If the Compliance Plan is accepted, Nasdaq can grant an extension of up to 180 calendar days from the date of the Notification. If Nasdaq does not accept the Company’s plan, the Company will have the right to appeal such decision to a Nasdaq hearings panel.

 

The Company intends to submit to Nasdaq, within the requisite period, a plan to regain compliance. There can be no assurance that Nasdaq will accept the Company’s plan or that the Company will be able to regain compliance with the applicable listing requirements.

 

The Company, by filing this Form 8-K, discloses its receipt of the notification from Nasdaq in accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(b).
