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

 

On November 3, 2014, WPCS International Incorporated (the “Company”) received a letter from the Staff of the Listing Qualifications Department (the “Staff”) of NASDAQ indicating that for the last 30 consecutive business days, the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock has been below $1.00 per share, the minimum closing bid price required by the continued listing requirements of NASDAQ, as set forth in Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the "Rule").

 

In accordance with Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company has been granted 180 calendar days, or until May 4, 2015, to regain compliance with the Rule (the "Compliance Period"). To regain compliance, the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock must be at least $1.00 per share for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days, but generally no more than 20 business days, during the Compliance Period.

 

If the Company does not regain compliance with the Rule by May 4, 2015, NASDAQ will provide written notification to the Company that its common stock may be delisted. However, the Company would be entitled to an additional 180-day period from May 4, 2015 to regain compliance, if, on May 4, 2015, the Company meets the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other initial listing standards for The NASDAQ Capital Market, with the exception of the bid price requirement, and the Company would need to provide written notice to NASDAQ of its intention to cure the deficiency during the second compliance period by effecting a reverse stock split, if necessary.

 

There is no assurance as to the price at which the Company’s common stock will trade. The Company intends to actively monitor the bid price for its common stock during the Compliance Period, and if the common stock continues to trade below the minimum bid price required for continued listing, the Company’s board of directors will consider its options to regain compliance with the continued listing requirements.
