EXPLANATORY NOTE
On January 15, 2019, the Registrant received a letter from the Listings Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Registrant that the minimum bid price per share for its ordinary shares was below $1.00 for a period of 30 consecutive business days and that the Registrant did not meet the minimum bid price requirement set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). This current report is filed pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(b). The Nasdaq notification letter does not result in the immediate delisting of the Registrant’s ordinary shares, and the shares will continue to trade uninterrupted under the symbol “RCON.”
Pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Registrant has a compliance period of 180 calendar days, or until July 15, 2019 (the “Compliance Period”), to regain compliance with Nasdaq’s minimum bid price requirement. If at any time during the Compliance Period, the closing bid price per share of the Registrant's ordinary shares is at least $1.00 for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days, Nasdaq will provide the Registrant a written confirmation of compliance and the matter will be closed.
In the event the Registrant does not regain compliance by July 15, 2019, the Registrant may be eligible for an additional 180 calendar day grace period. To qualify, the Registrant will be required to meet the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other initial listing standards for Nasdaq, with the exception of the bid price requirement, and will need to provide written notice of its intention to cure the deficiency during the second compliance period, including by effecting a reverse stock split, if necessary. If the Registrant chooses to implement a reverse stock split, it must complete the split no later than ten business days prior to the expiration of the second compliance period.
