NOTE 11 — SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

On November 7, 2019, the Company received a letter from the Listing Qualifications Department of the Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) indicating that, based upon the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock for the 30 consecutive business day period between September 26, 2019, through November 6, 2019, the Company did not meet the minimum bid price of $1.00 per share required for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). The letter also indicated that the Company will be provided with a compliance period of 180 calendar days, or until May 5, 2020 (the “Compliance Period”), in which to regain compliance pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A).

 

In order to regain compliance with Nasdaq’s minimum bid price requirement, the Company’s common stock must maintain a minimum closing bid price of $1.00 for at least ten consecutive business days during the Compliance Period. In the event the Company does not regain compliance by the end of the Compliance Period, the Company may be eligible for additional time to regain compliance. To qualify, the Company will be required to meet the continued listing requirement for the market value of its publicly held shares and all other initial listing standards for The Nasdaq Capital Market, with the exception of the bid price requirement, and will need to provide written notice of the Company intention to cure the deficiency during the second compliance period, by effecting a reverse stock split if necessary. If the Company meets these requirements, it may be granted an additional 180 calendar days to regain compliance. However, if it appears to Nasdaq that the Company will be unable to cure the deficiency, or if the Company is not otherwise eligible for the additional cure period, Nasdaq will provide notice that the Company’s common stock will be subject to delisting.

 

The letter has no immediate impact on the listing of the Company’s common stock, which will continue to be listed and traded on The Nasdaq Capital Market, subject to the Company’s compliance with the other listing requirements of The Nasdaq Capital Market. Additionally, a vote of stockholders at the Annual Meeting authorized management to enact a reverse split of the Company’s common stock of not less than 1-to-2 and not greater than 1-to-10 before September 18, 2020, in an effort to increase the trading price of the Company’s shares.

 

On November 27, 2019, the Company issued the following shares:

 

  21,000 shares of restricted stock to Swiss Resource Capital AG for services from July to December 2019, which consisted of 3,500 shares per month;
  22,767 shares of restricted stock to the Company’s Chief Financial Officer for services from January 2019 through September 2019;
  a stock option representing the right to purchase 50,000 shares of common stock to the Company’s Chief Financial Officer as an equity incentive grant; and
  37,037 shares of restricted stock with a fair market value of $30,000 to a consultant for services rendered under a six-month consulting agreement.
