Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing
On October 21, 2016, AG&E Holdings Inc. (the “Company”) received a notice from the NYSE MKT LLC (“NYSE MKT”) that the Company is not in compliance with the stockholders’ equity requirements set forth in Sections 1003(a)(i)-(iii) of the NYSE MKT Company Guide. The Company reported stockholders’ equity of $3.81 million as of June 30, 2016 and net losses in its three most recent fiscal years ended December 31, 2015. The continued listing standards are as follows:
| ● | Stockholders’ equity of $2.0 million or more if it has reported losses from continuing operations and/or net losses in two of its three most recent fiscal years (Section 1003(a)(i)); |
| ● | Stockholders’ equity of $4.0 million or more if it has reported losses from continuing operations and/or net losses in three of its four most recent fiscal years (Section 1003(a)(ii)); and |
| ● | Stockholders’ equity of $6.0 million or more if it has reported losses from continuing operations and/or net losses in its five most recent fiscal years (Section 1003(a)(iii)). |
The Company is analyzing various alternatives to determine the best approach for the future. Currently, the Company intends to submit a plan to NYSE MKT by November 21, 2016 advising how the Company plans to regain compliance with the continued listing standards by April 21, 2018. If the Company does not submit a plan or if the plan is not accepted, delisting procedures will commence. If the plan is accepted, the Company will be subject to periodic reviews and continued compliance with the plan. If the Company is not in compliance with the continued listing standards as of April 21, 2018, or does not make progress consistent with the plan, NYSE MKT may initiate delisting procedures.
The Company’s common stock will continue to be listed and traded on NYSE MKT during the cure period, subject to the Company’s compliance with NYSE MKT’s other applicable continued listing standards. The Company’s stock symbol “WGA” will be assigned a “.BC” indicator by NYSE MKT to signify that the Company currently is not in compliance with NYSE MKT’s continued listing standards. In the event the Company fails to regain compliance in accordance with Section 1009 of the NYSE MKT Company Guide during the cure period, the Company’s common stock will be subject to NYSE MKT’s suspension and delisting procedures.
The Company issued a press release announcing that it had received the notice of noncompliance. A copy of the press release is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1.
