DASAN ZHONE SOLUTIONS, INC. (NASDAQ:DZSI) Files An 8-K Other Events

Item 8.01 Other Events.

On April 20, 2017, DASAN Zhone Solutions, Inc. (the Company)
received a letter from The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC (Nasdaq)
indicating that a Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the Panel) had granted the
Companys request to extend the stay of the suspension of trading in
the Companys common stock pending the Companys scheduled hearing on
May 25, 2017 before the Panel and a final determination regarding
the Companys listing status.
As previously reported, on April 6, 2017, the Company received
notice from Nasdaq indicating that, based upon the Companys failure
to timely file its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 321, 2016 (the 2016 Form 10-K) with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the SEC), the Company no longer satisfied
Nasdaqs filing requirement, as set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule
5250(c)(1). The letter also stated that, because the Company failed
to satisfy Nasdaqs filing requirement within the past year and
notwithstanding the fact that the Company subsequently remedied the
deficiency, the Company was not eligible to submit a plan to regain
compliance with the filing requirement for Nasdaqs review; rather,
the letter stated that the late filing of the 2016 Form 10-K would
serve as an immediate basis for delisting unless the Company timely
requested a hearing before the Panel. The Company timely requested
a hearing and, as part of that request, had also requested that the
extended stay be granted.
At the hearing, the Company will present its plan to evidence
compliance with Nasdaqs filing requirement. The Company is
diligently working to evidence compliance with Nasdaqs filing
requirement as soon as possible; however, there can be no assurance
that the Panel will grant the Company’s request for continued
listing and a further stay of suspension. The delisting of the
Companys common stock from The Nasdaq Capital Market could have a
material adverse effect on the Company’s business and on the
trading of its common stock.
On April 25, 2017, the Company issued a press release announcing
its receipt of the Nasdaq letter. A copy of the press release is
attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by
reference.
