Air T, Inc. Granted 180-Day Extension By NASDAQ Stock Market To Regain Compliance With Listing Requirements

DENVER, N.C., Sept. 28, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Air T, Inc. ("Air T" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: AIRT) announced today that The NASDAQ Stock Market ("NASDAQ") granted the Company a 180-day extension to meet the requirements for continued listing on its exchange.

As previously reported, the Company had received letters from the Listing Qualifications Department of NASDAQ notifying the Company of its noncompliance with NASDAQ Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) because the Company had not yet filed its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2017 ("Form 10‑K") and its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2017 (the "Form 10‑Q").  As permitted under the NASDAQ Listing Rules, Air T timely submitted to NASDAQ the Company's plan to regain compliance with Rule 5250(c)(1).  NASDAQ has accepted the Company's plan and granted an exception of 180 calendar days from the Form 10-K's due date for the Company to regain compliance.  Under the terms of this exception, Air T must file the Form 10-K, the Form 10-Q, and all other delinquent periodic reports on or before January 10, 2018.  The exception provides that in the event that Air T does not satisfy the terms set forth in the extension, NASDAQ will provide written notification that the Company's common stock will be subject to delisting proceedings, at which time Air T may appeal NASDAQ's determination for a panel review.
