(NYSE American: NBY), a biopharmaceutical company focusing on commercializing prescription Avenova® for the domestic eye care market, announces that it will hold a virtual Annual Meeting of Stockholders on Thursday, May 30, 2019 at 5:00 p.m. Pacific time. Registered holders and beneficial stockholders, who register for the meeting in advance, will be able to participate in the meeting, vote and submit questions during the meeting via a live webcast by visiting www.meetingcenter.io/263757134.
The Company also notes that on April 12, 2019 it received notice (the “Notice”) from the NYSE American LLC that it is not in compliance with Section 1003(a)(iii) of the NYSE American Company Guide requiring stockholders’ equity of $6.0 million or more if it has reported losses from continuing operations and/or net losses in its five most recent fiscal years. Therefore, the Company has become subject to the procedures and requirements of Section 1009 of the NYSE American Company Guide and must submit a plan of compliance by May 12, 2019 addressing how it intends to regain compliance with Section 1003(a)(iii) of the NYSE American Company Guide by October 12, 2020. The Notice has no immediate impact on the listing of the Company's common stock and does not affect its ongoing business operations or Securities and Exchange Commission reporting requirements.
“We continue to have the full support of our majority shareholders, as recently demonstrated by the consolidation of their holdings,” said Justin Hall, Interim President and CEO. “It’s gratifying to have their continued support, and we fully intend to submit a plan to regain compliance with NYSE American listing standards within the required time period.”
If the NYSE American accepts the plan, the common stock will continue to be listed and traded on the NYSE American during that specified period. If the Company does not regain compliance with NYSE American listing standards, or does not make progress consistent with the plan, the NYSE American staff may commence delisting proceedings.
