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

 

On December 19, 2016, WPCS International Incorporated (the “Company”) received a notification (the “Notification”) from the Nasdaq Listings Qualification Department (“Nasdaq”) indicating that the Company’s stockholders’ equity reported for its most recently completed fiscal quarter did not meet the minimum requirement of $2,500,000 for continued listing as set forth in Nasdaq’s Listing Rule 5550(b)(1). As reported in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended October 31, 2016 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 15, 2016, the Company’s stockholders’ equity was $2,386,025 as of October 31, 2016.

 

Under the applicable Nasdaq rules, the Company has 45 calendar days to submit a plan as to how the Company would seek to regain compliance with this requirement. The Company is currently preparing such a plan, and is considering all available options to regain compliance. If the Company’s plan is accepted, Nasdaq can grant an extension of up to 180 calendar days from the date of the Notification, or June 17, 2017, to evidence compliance. There can be no assurance that any plan submitted by the Company will be accepted by Nasdaq or will be successful in maintaining the Company’s listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market for its common stock. Any such failure may impact the liquidity and market price of the Company’s common stock and the Company’s access to the capital markets.
