MYOS RENS TECHNOLOGY INC. (NASDAQ:MYOS) Files An 8-K Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing
Item 3.01

On November 12, 2019, MYOS RENS Technology Inc. (the “Company”) received a notice (the “Notice”) from the Staff of the Listing Qualifications Department (the “Staff”) of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) indicating that, based upon the Staff’s determination, the Company is not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) because, based on the reported total stockholders’ equity in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2019, the Company did not have a minimum of $2,500,000 in stockholders’ equity for continued listing on Nasdaq (the “Stockholders’ Equity Requirement”). Specifically, the Company’s total stockholders’ equity as of the quarter ended September 30, 2019 was approximately $2,365,000, or approximately $135,000 less than the Stockholders’ Equity Requirement. The Company is required to submit to Nasdaq a plan to regain compliance with the Stockholders’ Equity Requirement for the Staff’s consideration by no later than December 27, 2019.

The Company intends to timely submit a compliance plan for the Staff’s review. If the Staff accepts the plan, the Staff may grant the Company an extension of up to 180 calendar days from the date of the Notice (the “Extension Period”) to evidence compliance with the Stockholders’ Equity Requirement. If the Staff does not accept the Company’s plan, the Company may request a hearing, at which hearing it would present its plan to a Nasdaq Hearings Panel and request the continued listing of its securities on Nasdaq to and pending the completion of such plan. During the pendency of the hearing process, the Company’s securities would continue to be listed on Nasdaq.

The Company anticipates regaining compliance with the Stockholders’ Equity Requirement during the Extension Period. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to satisfy the Stockholders’ Equity Requirement.
