| Item 3.01 | Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing |
On September 1, 2017, Ampio Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Company”) received a letter from NYSE American (the “Exchange”) stating that the Exchange has determined that the Company is not in compliance with Sections 1003(a)(ii) and 1003(a)(iii) of the Exchange Company Guide (the “Company Guide”) and the stockholders’ equity continued listing standards applicable to the Company due to the Company’s recently reported stockholders’ equity of $3,734,756 as of June 30, 2017 and net losses in its five most recent fiscal years ended December 31, 2016.
The letter requires the Company to submit a plan by October 2, 2017 advising of actions it has taken or will take to regain compliance with the continued listing standards by March 1, 2019. If the Company’s plan is accepted by the Exchange, then the Company will be able to continue its listing during the period ending March 1, 2019, during which time it will be subject to periodic reviews, including quarterly monitoring, for compliance with the plan. If the Company does not submit a plan or if the plan is not accepted, delisting proceedings will commence. Furthermore, if the plan is accepted by the Exchange, but the Company is not in compliance with the continued listing standards of the Company Guide by March 1, 2019, or if the Company does not make progress consistent with the plan, then the Exchange staff will initiate delisting proceedings as appropriate.
The Company issued a press release on September 7, 2017 stating that it had received the letter from the Exchange.
