Sep 18 2009
American Claims Evaluation, Inc. (Nasdaq: AMCE) (the “Company”) today announced that on September 15, 2009, the Company received a deficiency letter from The Nasdaq Stock Market indicating that the closing bid price of its common stock had fallen below $1.00 for 30 consecutive business days, and therefore, the Company was not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company was provided a grace period of 180 calendar days, or until March 15, 2010, to regain compliance with this requirement. At this time, this notification has no effect on the listing of the Company’s common stock on The Nasdaq Capital Market.
The Company can regain compliance with the minimum closing bid price rule if the bid price of its common stock closes at $1.00 or higher for a minimum of ten consecutive business days during the initial 180 calendar day grace period, although Nasdaq may, in its discretion, require the Company to maintain a bid price of at least $1.00 per share for a period in excess of ten consecutive business days (but generally no more than 20 consecutive business days) before determining that the Company has demonstrated the ability to maintain long-term compliance. If compliance is not achieved by March 15, 2010, the Company may be eligible for an additional 180 calendar day grace period if it meets The Nasdaq Capital Market initial listing criteria as set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5505 other than the minimum closing bid price requirement. If the Company is not eligible for such additional grace period, or does not regain compliance during any additional grace period, Nasdaq will provide written notice to the Company that its securities will be delisted from The Nasdaq Capital Market. At such time, the Company would be able to appeal the delisting determination to the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Department.
