ARC GROUP WORLDWIDE, INC.
ANNOUNCES RECEIPT OF NASDAQ DEFICIENCY NOTICE
DELAND, FL., October 17, 2014/PRNewswire/--ARC Group Worldwide, Inc. (the “Company”) (NASDAQ: ARCW), a leading global provider of advanced manufacturing and 3D printing solutions, announced today that on October 15, 2014, it received a notice from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that it is not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1), Obligation to File Periodic Financial Reports, because it did not timely file its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014 with the Securities and Exchange Commission. As previously announced in the Company’s press release dated October 14, 2014, the Company determined that it needs to delay the filing of its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014.
The Company has been provided an initial grace period of 60 calendar days, or until December 15, 2014, to submit a plan to regain compliance and if Nasdaq accepts the Company’s plan, an additional grace period of up to 180 calendar days from the original due date, or until April 13, 2015, can be provided to regain compliance. In the event Nasdaq determines that the Company’s plan is not sufficient to regain compliance, Nasdaq staff will send written notice that the Company’s common stock will be subject to delisting. At that time, the Company may appeal the delisting determination to a Nasdaq hearings panel. The Company is working diligently on this matter and intends to file its Annual Report on Form 10-K as soon as reasonably possible.
