RiT Technologies Receives Nasdaq Notification Regarding Stockholders' Equity Deficiency, Maintains Compliance Through Debt-to-Equity Conversion
TEL AVIV, Israel, June 22, 2010 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- RiT Technologies (NASDAQ: RITT) today announced that it has received a Nasdaq Staff Deficiency Letter indicating that, according to its first quarter results, it is not in compliance with the Nasdaq Capital Market's $2,500,000 minimum stockholders' equity requirement. In parallel, Nasdaq's Staff gave the Company 45 days to demonstrate a plan for returning to compliance, and thereby assuring continuous listing.
In anticipation of such a notification, on May 24th the Company announced that its principal shareholder, STINS COMAN Inc., intended to carry out a private Share Purchase transaction undertaken, among other reasons, to increase its stockholders' equity. In this transaction, completed on June 9, 2010, STINS COMAN converted outstanding debt and accrued interest totaling approximately $1.5 million that it had previously loaned to the Company into 615,485 of the Company's ordinary shares. This increased the Company's stockholders' equity to a level of approximately $3.6 million, which is well in excess of the $2,500,000 required for listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market.
The Company intends to follow Nasdaq's procedures for presenting these facts within 45 days, and expects thereby to receive formal approval of continued compliance and listing.
