| Item 2.02 | Results of Operations and Financial Condition. |
On June 7, 2012, American Learning Corporation (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing its financial results for the year ended March 31, 2012. The press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1. This information shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and is not incorporated by reference into any filing of the Company, whether made before or after the date of this report, regardless of any general incorporation language in the filing.
| Item 3.01 | Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing. |
On June 1, 2012, the Company received a deficiency letter from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) indicating that for the last 30 consecutive business days the Company’s common stock had a closing bid price below the $1.00 minimum closing bid as required for continued listing set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company was provided a grace period of 180 calendar days, or until November 27, 2012, to regain compliance with this requirement.
At this time, this notification has no effect on the listing of the Company’s common stock on The Nasdaq Capital Market.
The Company can regain compliance with the minimum closing bid price rule if the bid price of its common stock closes at $1.00 or higher for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days during the initial 180 calendar day grace period, although Nasdaq may, in its discretion, require the Company to maintain a bid price of at least $1.00 per share for a period in excess of 10 consecutive business days before determining that the Company has demonstrated the ability to maintain long-term compliance. If compliance is not achieved by November 27, 2012, the Company may be eligible for an additional 180 calendar day grace period if it meets The Nasdaq Capital Market continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other initial listing criteria as set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5505 other than the minimum closing bid price requirement. If the Company is not eligible for such additional grace period, or it appears to the Staff of Nasdaq that the Company will not be able to regain compliance during the additional grace period, Nasdaq will provide written notice to the Company that its securities will be delisted from The Nasdaq Capital Market. At such time, the Company would be able to appeal the delisting determination to the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Department.
