Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or
Standard; Transfer of Listing.
On May 16, 2005, Collins Industries, Inc. (the "Company") received notice
of a determination by the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel (the "Panel") to
(i) deny the Company's request for an extension to June 30, 2005 within which to
file the Company's Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2004 and Form
10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended January 31, 2005 and (ii) delist the Company's
shares from The Nasdaq National Market, effective as of May 16, 2005, for the
Company's failure to satisfy the requirements of Nasdaq Marketplace Rule
4310(c)(14) for continued listing. The Panel determined that when the Company
becomes current with all of its SEC periodic reports, its shares may be relisted
on The Nasdaq National Market under the maintenance standards for bid price of
$1.00 rather than the new listing standards for bid price of $5.00. In the
meantime, the Company anticipates that its shares will be able to be traded on
the Pink Sheets.
The Company's appeal to the Nasdaq Listing and Review Council (the "Listing
Council") dated April 26, 2005 is still pending. While the Company has not yet
determined whether to request an additional appeal of the Panel's delisting
determination dated May 16, 2005, the Panel's delisting determination will be
included in the record for review by the Listing Council under the Company's
original appeal.
The Company issued a press release on May 17, 2005 regarding this matter. A
copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
Item 9.01 Financial Statements and Exhibits.
