REDMOND, Wash., Dec. 16, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- MicroVision, Inc. (MVIS), a leader in innovative ultra-miniature projection display and sensing technology, today announced that on December 12, 2019, MicroVision, Inc. received formal notice from the Listing Qualifications Staff (the “Staff”) of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) indicating that the Staff had determined to delist the Company’s securities from The Nasdaq Global Market based upon the Company’s continued non-compliance with the $1.00 bid price requirement, unless the Company requests a hearing before the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “Panel”).
The Company intends to request a hearing before the Panel, which will stay any further action by the Staff pending the Panel’s decision. At the hearing the Company intends to present its plan to regain compliance with all applicable criteria for continued listing. There can be no assurance that the Panel will determine to continue the Company’s listing, or that the Company will be able to evidence compliance with listing criteria within the period of time that may be granted by the Panel.
As previously disclosed in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on June 14, 2019, on June 13, 2019, the Staff notified the Company that, based upon the closing bid price for the Company’s common stock for the 30 prior consecutive business day period, the Company no longer satisfied the $1.00 bid price requirement set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(a)(1), and that it had been provided a 180-calendar day grace period to regain compliance with that requirement, through December 10, 2019.
