Item 8.01. Other Events.
As previously reported in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed by China Commercial Credit, Inc. (the “Company”) on September 3, 2015, the Company received a written notice from The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) dated August 27, 2015 stating that the Company is no longer in compliance with the $1.00 minimum closing bid price requirement for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market, as set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Minimum Bid Price Requirement”). The Nasdaq notice provided that if by February 23, 2016, the Company did not achieve compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement but (a) is in compliance with all other listing standards of the Nasdaq Capital Market (other than the Minimum Bid Price Requirement), and (b) the Company provides written notice of its intention to cure the Minimum Bid Price Requirement deficiency during a second compliance period, Nasdaq may grant the Company an additional compliance period of 180 days to comply with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. On February 18, 2016, the Company provided written notice of its intention to cure the bid price deficiency during a second compliance period. On February 24, 2016, Nasdaq issued a notice indicating that the Company’s compliance period has been formally extended until August 22, 2016. However, if the Company does not regain compliance by August 22, 2016, Nasdaq will provide written notification that the Company’s securities will be delisted. At that time, the Company may appeal Nasdaq’s delisting determination to a Hearings Panel.
The notice has no immediate effect on the listing of the Company’s common stock, and its common stock will continue to trade on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “CCCR” at this time.
