Story continues below

On May 2, 2017, InfoSonics Corporation (the “Company”) received a letter from the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Staff (the “Staff”) advising that the Staff had determined that:  (i) the Company had not regained compliance with the $1.00 per share minimum bid price requirement of Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) as of May 1, 2017 (following the expiration of two 180-day periods in which to regain compliance previously provided by Nasdaq); and (ii) unless the Company requested an appeal of this determination by May 9, 2017, trading of the Company’s common stock would be suspended from The Nasdaq Capital Market at the opening of business on May 11, 2017 and a Form 25-NSE would be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) to remove the Company’s securities from listing and registration on The Nasdaq Stock Market (the “Delisting”).  The Company intends to submit an oral hearing request on or before May 9, 2017 to the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “Panel”), which request will stay the Delisting.

At the Panel hearing regarding the Delisting, the Company will be required to present a plan to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement.  The Company expects to present to the Panel a plan that includes a discussion of the reasons why the Company believes it can regain compliance, as well as confirm to the Panel that the Company is prepared to effectuate a reverse stock split in order to regain compliance if necessary.  The Panel will rule on whether to grant the Company relief from the Delisting (including setting forth the specific requirements of any such relief) or go forward with the Delisting, following the hearing.
