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

As previously reported, on December 19, 2018, Diversicare Healthcare Services, Inc. (the “Company”) received a letter from the Listing Qualifications staff of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) indicating that, based upon Nasdaq’s review of the Market Value of Listed Securities (“MVLS”) for the last 30 consecutive business days, the Company no longer met the minimum MVLS of $35 million as set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(2). The MVLS is calculated based upon the total shares outstanding at the measurement date multiplied by the closing bid price of our common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”). In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(C), the Company was provided an initial period of 180 calendar days, or until June 17, 2019, in which to regain compliance with the requirement. The Company did not regain compliance by June 17, 2019.

On June 19, 2019, the Company received written notification (the “Notification”) from Nasdaq stating that the Company’s common stock was subject to delisting from Nasdaq, pending the Company’s opportunity to request a hearing before the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “Panel”). The Notification stated that the Company had not regained compliance with the Rule and if the Company did not request an appeal before the Panel on or before June 26, 2019, the Company’s common stock would be scheduled for delisting at the opening of business on June 28, 2019.

The Company plans to request an appeal of the Notification. There can be no assurance, however, that the Panel will grant the Company’s request for continued listing. Under Nasdaq rules, the delisting of the Company’s common stock will be stayed during the pendency of the appeal and during such time, the Company’s common stock will continue to be listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market.

Forward Looking Statements

Except for the factual statements made herein, information contained in this report consists of forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict. Words such as “will,” “may,” “intends,” “plans,” and similar expressions, or the use of future tense, identify forward-looking statements, but their absence does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. Such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of performance and actual actions or events could differ materially from those contained in such statements. For example, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to meet Nasdaq compliance standards. The forward-looking statements contained in this report speak only as of the date of this report and the Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements to reflect changes in information, events or circumstances after the date of this report, unless required by law. The risks included are not exhaustive; for a more detailed description of these uncertainties and other factors, see “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Commission on February 28, 2019.
