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

 

On November 14, 2016, Supernus Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Company”) received a letter from the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Department (the “Letter”) indicating that it is not in compliance with the filing requirement under Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5250(c)(1) due to its failure to timely file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2016 (the “Quarterly Report”).  The notice further stated that Nasdaq rules permit the Company to submit a plan to regain compliance by no later than January 13, 2017, or within 60 calendar days.  Following a review of this plan, Nasdaq staff can grant the Company an exception, up to 180 calendar days from the due date of the Quarterly Report, or until May 8, 2017, to regain compliance.  The Company currently anticipates regaining compliance with the filing requirement by filing its Quarterly Report prior to January 13, 2017, or, in the alternative, submitting to Nasdaq a plan to regain compliance.

 

On November 17, 2016, the Company issued a press release announcing receipt of the Letter. A copy of this press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
