Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
On February 25, 2005, the Company received a letter from The Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc. (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that it was not in compliance with Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(14) which requires the Company to provide Nasdaq with copies of all periodic reports required to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The Nasdaq letter relates to the Company’s announcement on February 24, 2005 (see the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Commission on February 24, 2005, which is incorporated herein by this reference) that it would be delayed in filing its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2004. As previously announced, the filing of the Form 10-Q is being delayed due to a continuing difference of opinion with its newly appointed auditors, Deloitte & Touche LLP (“Deloitte”), regarding the accounting treatment used by the Company to record a particular transaction and related tax effects. The Company’s Audit Committee, along with its advisors, continues to work with Deloitte in an effort to resolve this matter as soon as possible.
The Company intends to request an appeal hearing before a Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel to review the Nasdaq Staff’s determination in accordance with NASD Marketplace Rule 4800 Series. A hearing request will stay the delisting of the Company’s securities pending the Panel’s decision. The Nasdaq Hearings Department will determine the time and place of the hearing.
Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.
On February 25, 2005, the Company issued a press release announcing the receipt of the Nasdaq letter. A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
