Aspyra Announces Voluntary Delisting of Its Common Stock from NYSE Amex
27 Oktober 2009 - 9:23PM
Business Wire
Aspyra, Inc. (AMEX: APY) today announced that is has
given notice to NYSE Amex (the “Exchange”) of its decision to
voluntarily delist its common stock from the Exchange and
deregister its common stock under the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).
The Company’s board of directors has elected to take this action
for the following reasons:
- The nature and limited extent of
the trading in the common stock, as well as the market value that
the public markets are currently applying to the common stock.
- The direct and indirect costs
associated with the preparation and filing of the Company’s
periodic reports with the SEC.
- The fact that many other typical
advantages of being a public company, including enhanced access to
capital and the ability to use equity securities to acquire other
businesses, are not currently sufficiently available to the Company
to an extent that would justify such costs.
In addition to the significant time and cost savings resulting
from the voluntary termination of the registration of the Company’s
common stock under the Exchange Act, the Company’s board of
directors believes that this action will allow the Company’s
management to focus its attention and resources on building
longer-term enterprise value.
The Company has not made any arrangements to have its common
stock listed on any other exchange or quoted in any other quotation
medium.
As previously disclosed, on September 24, 2009, the Company
received notice from the Exchange that the Company does not meet
one of the Exchange’s continued listing standards as set forth in
Part 10 of the NYSE Amex LLC Company Guide (the “Company Guide”).
The notice received from the Exchange stated that the Company is
not in compliance with Section 1003(a)(iv) of the Company Guide.
The Company was afforded the opportunity to submit a plan of
compliance to the Exchange by October 26, 2009, addressing how it
intends to regain compliance with Section 1003(a)(iv) of the
Company Guide by March 24, 2010. Because the Company intends to
deregister under the Exchange Act, the Company does not intend to
submit such a plan to the Exchange.
The Company intends to file a notification of removal from
listing on the Exchange on Form 25 with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the “SEC”) on or about November 6, 2009. The withdrawal
of the Company’s common stock from listing on the Exchange will be
effective 10 days after the filing of the Form 25. Following the
effectiveness of the delisting, and the completion of a 101-to-1
reverse stock split, the Company intends to terminate the
registration of its common stock under the Exchange Act in
accordance with SEC rules.
