Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
On January 2, 2013, Shengkai Innovations, Inc. (the “Company”) received a notification letter (the “Notice”) from the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Department (“NASDAQ”) advising the Company that it has not regained compliance with Listing Rule 5450(a)(1), the continued listing requirement to maintain the closing bid price of its common stock at $1.00 per share, and, accordingly, that its common stock is now subject to delisting from The NASDAQ Global Market.
However, the Company may be eligible for a second 180 day period. To qualify, the Company must submit an on-line application to transfer its common stock to The Nasdaq Capital Market by January 9, 2013. The Company will be required to meet 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 will need to provide written notice of its intention to cure the deficiency during the second compliance period by effecting a reverse stock split, if necessary. As part of its review process, NASDAQ will make a determination of whether it believes the Company will be able to cure this deficiency. Should NASDAQ concludes that the Company will not be able to cure the deficiency, or should the Company not make the required representation, its common stock will be delisted from The Nasdaq Global Market.
The Notice also states that the Company may appeal Staff’s determination to the Panel, pursuant to the procedures set forth in the Nasdaq Listing Rule 5800 Series. Unless the Company has submitted an application to transfer its common stock to The Nasdaq Capital Market or requests an appeal of the determination to delist the Company’s common stock, the Company’s common stock will be scheduled for delisting at the opening of business on January 11, 2013, and a Form 25-NSE will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which will remove the Company’s securities from listing and registration on The Nasdaq Stock Market. If the Company files the hearing request before 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time on January 9, 2013, the suspension of the Company’s common stock and the filing of the Form 25-NSE will be stayed pending the Panel’s decision.
