Section 3 Securities and Trading Markets
Item 3.01 | Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing. |
On January 16, 2017, EXCO Resources, Inc. (the Company) was notified by the New York Stock Exchange (the NYSE) that the average closing price of the Companys common shares, par value $0.001 per share (the Common Shares), over the prior 30 consecutive trading days was below $1.00 per share, which is the minimum average closing price required to maintain listing on the NYSE under Section 802.01C of the NYSE Listed Company Manual.
As required by the NYSE, the Company plans to notify the NYSE of its intent to cure the deficiency and restore its compliance with the NYSE continued listing standards. The Company has a period of six months following the receipt of the notice to regain compliance. In order to regain compliance, on the last trading day in any calendar month, the Common Shares must have (i) a closing price of at least $1.00 per share and (ii) an average closing price of at least $1.00 per share over the 30 consecutive trading day period ending on the last trading day of such month. If the Company is unable to regain compliance, the NYSE will initiate procedures to suspend and delist the Common Shares.
The notice has no immediate impact on the listing of the Common Shares, which will continue to be listed and traded on the NYSE during this period, subject to the Companys compliance with the other listing requirements of the NYSE. The Common Shares will continue to trade under the symbol XCO, but will have an added designation of .BC to indicate the status of the Common Shares as below compliance.
If the Common Shares ultimately were to be delisted for any reason, it could negatively impact the Company by (i) reducing the liquidity and market price of the Companys Common Shares; (ii) reducing the number of investors willing to hold or acquire the Common Shares, which could negatively impact the Companys ability to raise equity financing; (iii) limiting the Companys ability to use a registration statement to offer and sell freely tradable securities, thereby preventing the Company from accessing the public capital markets; and (iv) impairing the Companys ability to provide equity incentives to its employees.
