Item 3.01.
|
Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
|
On July 17, 2013, Swisher Hygiene Inc. (the “Company”) received a written notice (the “Notice”) from the Listing Qualifications department of The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq") indicating that the Company is not in compliance with the minimum bid price requirement of $1.00 per share set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(a)(1) for continued listing on The Nasdaq Global Select Market.
The Nasdaq Listing Rules require listed securities to maintain a minimum bid price of $1.00 per share and, based upon the closing bid price for the 30 consecutive business days ended July 16, 2013, the Company did not meet this requirement. The Company will be provided a 180 day period in which to regain compliance. If at any time during this period the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock is at least $1.00 for a minimum of ten consecutive business days, the Company will receive a written confirmation of compliance from Nasdaq and the matter will be closed.
In addition, following the initial 180 day period, the Company may be eligible for an additional 180 day period to regain compliance, subject to the Company, at that time, transferring its securities to The Nasdaq Capital Market and confirming that the Company will, if necessary to cure the deficiency, effect a reverse stock split during the second 180 day compliance period.
At present, the Company will work to regain compliance during the initial 180 day compliance period and will actively monitor its performance with respect to the listing standards.
In connection with the receipt of the Notice, the Company issued a press release on July 23, 2013, a copy of which is attached to this report as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
