NASDAQ Approves Koss' Application to Transfer to the Capital Market

Milwaukee, Wisconsin: Koss Corporation (NASDAQ SYMBOL: KOSS), the U.S. based high-fidelity headphone company, announced that on November 5, 2014, NASDAQ notified Koss that the Company’s application to list its common stock on the NASDAQ Capital Market was approved. The Company’s securities will be transferred to the Capital Market at the opening of business on November 7, 2014.
