Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
On April 11, 2012, Winland Electronics, Inc. (the “Company”) received a letter from NYSE Amex LLC (the “Exchange”) indicating that the Company is not in compliance with certain of the Exchange’s continued listing standards as set forth in Part 10 of the Exchange’s Company Guide (the “Company Guide”), and the Company has therefore become subject to the procedures and requirements of Section 1009 of the Company Guide. Specifically, the Company was cited by the Exchange for noncompliance with the following section of the Company Guide:
|
·
|
Section 1003(a)(iii) – stockholders’ equity of less than $6,000,000 and losses from continuing operations and/or net losses in the Company’s five most recent fiscal years.
|
In order to maintain its listing, the Company must submit a plan of compliance by May 11, 2012 addressing how it intends to regain compliance with Section 1003(a)(iii) by May 29, 2013 (the “Plan Period”). The Company is taking steps to prepare and submit such a plan to the Exchange on or before May 11, 2012. Corporate Compliance Department management of the Exchange will evaluate the Company’s plan and determine whether it reasonably demonstrates the Company’s ability to regain compliance with the continued listing standards within the specified timeframes. If the Exchange accepts the Company’s plan, the Company may be able to continue its listing during the Plan Period, during which time the Company will be subject to periodic review to determine whether it is making progress consistent with its plan. If the Company fails to submit a plan, the plan is not accepted, or the Company fails to demonstrate progress consistent with the plan accepted by the Exchange, the Exchange will initiate delisting procedures.
On April 17, 2012, the Company issued a press release regarding the letter received from the Exchange. A copy of the Company’s press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
