Item 8.01 Other Events.
As previously disclosed, on June 16, 2016, WPCS International Incorporated (the “Company”) entered into a settlement agreement and mutual release (the “Settlement”) to resolve disputes regarding the construction of the Cooper Medical School at Rowan University, located in Camden, New Jersey, in which the Company served as an electrical prime contractor. As set forth in the “Subsequent Events” section under Footnote 15 to the Company’s financial statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2016, the Company received $1,150,000 in the settlement from all existing lawsuits and all claims among the parties were released.
Had the Company received the $1,150,000 in cash proceeds from the Settlement on or before April 30, 2016, the Company believes it would have reported stockholders’ equity of $3,375,304 as of and for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2016, which amount exceeds the minimum $2,500,000 stockholders’ equity threshold for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market, as set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b) (the “Rule”). For purposes of evidencing the Company’s current compliance with the Rule, the Company has filed this Current Report on Form 8-K to indicate its belief that the Company satisfies the Rule as of the date of the filing of this report.
