DayStar Technologies, Inc. Presents Compliance Plan to NASDAQ Hearings Panel: Shares to Remain Listed Until Final Determination
Company management today presented its compliance plan to the NASDAQ Hearings Panel. Shares to remain listed until final determination.
SANTA CLARA, Calif., March 11 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- DayStar Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq: DSTI), a developer of solar photovoltaic products based on CIGS thin-film deposition technology announced that today it presented its compliance plan to the NASDAQ Hearings Panel. The Company announced on September 18, 2009 and January 26, 2010 that it received NASDAQ Staff Determination Letters stating that its common stock is subject to delisting because of the deficiencies that the closing bid price per share for the Company's common stock has been below the $1.00 minimum per share requirement and the Company's failure to hold its annual meeting for fiscal year 2008 on or before December 31, 2009.
"We are pleased that the Hearings Panel has provided us with the opportunity to present our compliance plan to address their concerns," said Magnus Ryde, Chief Executive Officer. The compliance plan included information regarding the planned annual meeting and the proposed reverse stock split. While the Company is confident that its compliance plan, when fully implemented, will meet the requirements for continued listing on NASDAQ, there can be no assurance that the Hearings Panel will grant the Company's request for continued listing.
In the interim, NASDAQ has informed the Company that any delisting action of the Company's securities from the NASDAQ Stock Market is stayed until such time as the hearing procedures have concluded. The Company expects a final determination within the next 30 days. A copy of the Company's preliminary proxy statement which contains details about the annual meeting and the reverse split can be found at http://www.sec.gov/edgar.shtml.
