Naked Brand Group Inc. (NASDAQ:NAKD) Files An 8-K Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing
Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

As previously disclosed in its Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 7, 2018 (the “Initial 8-K”), on February 1, 2018, Naked Brand Group Inc. (the “Company”) received written notice from the Listing Qualifications Staff of The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that it no longer complies with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5620(a) due to the Company’s failure to hold an annual meeting of stockholders within twelve months of the end of the Company’s fiscal year ended January 31, 2017 (the “Annual Meeting Requirement”). As disclosed in the Initial 8-K, the Company delayed holding its 2017 annual meeting of stockholders because of the contemplated business combination with Bendon Limited and Bendon Group Holdings Limited that would be submitted to the Company’s stockholders for a vote at a meeting.

On March 19, 2018, the Company provided Nasdaq with a plan to regain compliance with the Annual Meeting Requirement, which, among other things, explained the reasons for the Company’s delay in holding its 2017 annual meeting of stockholders and stated the Company’s intention to hold an annual meeting of stockholders on or before July 30, 2018.

On March 27, 2018, the Company received written notice from Nasdaq granting the Company an extension until July 30, 2018 to regain compliance with the Annual Meeting Requirement by holding an annual meeting of stockholders at which, among other things, the stockholders shall elect directors to the Board of Directors of the Company. The notice further provides that in the event the Company does not satisfy such terms, Nasdaq will provide written notification that the Company’s securities will be delisted.

There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to regain compliance with the Annual Meeting Requirement or maintain compliance with any other Nasdaq requirement in the future.
