Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
On October 19, 2016, MGT Capital Investments, Inc. (the “Company”) received a letter from the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE” or the “Exchange”) stating that the staff of NYSE Regulation has determined to commence proceedings to delist the Company’s common stock (the “Action”). NYSE Regulation cited Section 1002(c) of the NYSE MKT LLC Company Guide as the reason for the Action. The cited section is intended to apply when a company has sold or otherwise disposed of its principal operating assets or has ceased to be an operating company.
The Company knows of no facts or circumstances that would lead NYSE to take the Action. The Company has not sold or disposed of its principal operating assets and believes that it qualifies as an operating company. The Company is in the process of applying to be listed on the NASDAQ and OTCQX Market, however, no assurance can be given that either of the applications will be approved, or of the timing of such approval, if granted.
