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

 

On May 19, 2015, Vapor Corp. (the “Company”) received a deficiency letter from the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications department (the “Staff”) notifying the Company that for the last 30 consecutive business days the Company’s common stock had closed below the minimum $1.00 per share bid price requirement for continued inclusion on The Nasdaq Capital Market pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company has been provided an initial period of 180 calendar days, or until November 16, 2015, to regain compliance with the bid price requirement. If, at any time before November 16, 2015, the closing bid price for the Company’s common stock is $1.00 or more for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days, the Staff will provide written notification to the Company that it has regained compliance with the bid price requirement.

 

If the Company does not regain compliance with the bid price requirement by November 16, 2015, the Company may be eligible for an additional 180 calendar day compliance period provided that it meets the continued listing requirement for the market value of publicly held shares and all other initial listing standards, with the exception of the bid price requirement, and provides the Staff with written notice of its intention to cure the deficiency. If the Company does not regain compliance by November 16, 2015 or the termination of any subsequent compliance period, if applicable, the Staff will provide written notification to the Company that its common stock may be delisted.

 

In anticipation of receiving the Staff’s notice, on May 12, 2015, the Company filed a preliminary proxy statement on Schedule 14A with the Securities and Exchange Commission, followed by a definitive proxy statement filed May 22, 2015, in connection with the Company’s 2015 Annual Meeting of shareholders that included a proposal to approve an amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation to effect a reverse stock split. The Company’s Annual Meeting is scheduled for July 7, 2015. There can be no assurance that the Company’s shareholders will approve the amendment, or that a reverse stock split will prevent the Company’s stock price from falling below the bid price requirement in the future.
