On May 23, 2017, FalconStor Software, Inc. (the “Company”) received written notification from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) that the Nasdaq Qualifications Hearings Panel has determined to delist the shares of the Company’s common stock from The Nasdaq Capital Market® due to the failure of the Company’s common Stock to maintain a $1.00 bid price. Under Nasdaq rules, the suspension of trading and delisting of the Company’s securities will be automatically stayed following a timely request for a hearing pending the issuance of a written Panel Decision by the Hearings Department. The Company intends to commence such an appeal within the required appeal period under Nasdaq rules. The Company is considering several paths to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement, including, among other things, a reverse stock split. Although there can be no assurance that the Nasdaq will grant the Company’s request for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market, the delisting proceedings will be stayed and the Company’s common stock will continue to be listed on the Nasdaq pending resolution of the appeal.
