Item 3.01. Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
As previously reported in a Form 12b-25 Notification of Late Filing filed by Enterprise Financial Services Corp (the “Company”) on March 15, 2012, the Company is delayed in filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011 (the “Form 10-K”) because of the need to restate its financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2010 and the interim financial statements included in its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q as of and for each of the periods ended March 31, June 30, and September 30, for 2010 and 2011, respectively.
As of March 30, 2012, the Company remained unable to file the Form 10-K. As a result, on March 30, 2012, in accordance with standard procedures related to the delayed filing of the Form 10-K with the SEC, the Company received a letter from The NASDAQ OMX Group (“NASDAQ”) indicating that the Company is not in compliance with the filing requirements for continued listing under NASDAQ Listing Rule 5250(c)(1). The NASDAQ letter notes that the Company is required to submit a plan to regain compliance with NASDAQ's filing requirements for continued listing within 60 calendar days of the date of the NASDAQ notification letter. Upon acceptance of the Company's compliance plan, NASDAQ is permitted to grant an extension of up to 180 days from the Form 10-K's filing date for the Company to regain compliance with NASDAQ's filing requirements for continued listing. The NASDAQ notice has no immediate effect on the listing or trading of the Company's common stock on the NASDAQ Global Select Market.
The Company anticipates that it will fully regain compliance with the NASDAQ continued listing requirements upon filing its Form 10-K and that the filing of the Form 10-K within the 60-day period will eliminate the need for the Company to submit a formal plan to regain compliance.
A press release, dated April 2, 2012, disclosing the Company's receipt of the NASDAQ notification letter is attached as Exhibit 99.1 and is furnished herewith.
