Item 3.01. Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing

 

 

On May 21, 2012, Socket Mobile, Inc. (the “Company”) received a letter from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market (the “Staff”) confirming that the Company’s stockholders’ equity as of March 31, 2012 of $2,445,759 was below the minimum stockholders’ equity of $2,500,000 required for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market as set forth in Marketplace Rule 5550(b)(1) (the “Rule”)

 

The Company will be provided 45 calendar days, or until July 5, 2012, to submit to the Staff a plan (the “Plan”) to regain compliance with the Rule. If the Plan is accepted, the Staff may grant an extension of up to 180 calendar days (the “Maximum Extension”) to evidence compliance. There are no assurances that the Staff will accept the Plan or that if accepted, the Maximum Extension will be granted. In the event the Plan is not accepted, or if the Company fails to demonstrate compliance during the extension period, the Company expects the Staff to provide written notification to the Company that its securities will be delisted from the Nasdaq Capital Market (a “Delisting Notice”).

 

If the Company receives a Delisting Notice, the Company may appeal the Staff’s determination to delist its securities to a Hearings Panel.

 

The Nasdaq notice of non-compliance to the Company is furnished with this report as Exhibit 99.1. The full text of the Company's press release concerning its receipt of a notice of non-compliance from the Nasdaq Stock Market is furnished with this report as Exhibit 99.2.
