Item 3.01 NOTICE OF DELISTING OR FAILURE TO SATISFY A CONTINUED LISTING RULE OR STANDARD; TRANSFER OF LISTING
On February 15, 2008, Symmetricom, Inc. (the “Company”) received a Nasdaq Staff Determination notice stating that the Company is not in compliance with Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(14). The notice was issued in accordance with Nasdaq procedures because the Company did not timely file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended December 30, 2007.
The Nasdaq notice states that, unless the Company requests an appeal of the determination, trading of the Company’s common stock will be suspended at the opening of business on February 26, 2008 and the Company’s securities will be removed from listing and registration on The Nasdaq Stock Market.
The Company currently intends to request a hearing to appeal the determination with the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel. Pending a decision by the hearing panel, the Company’s common stock will remain listed on The Nasdaq Global Market. However, there can be no assurance that the hearing panel will grant the Company’s appeal and request for continued listing.
As previously disclosed in the Notification of Late Filing on Form 12b-25 filed by the Company on February 11, 2008, the Company failed to timely file its Form 10-Q for the period ended December 30, 2007 because its Audit Committee is currently in the process of investigating and resolving certain accounting issues relating to the Company’s raw material inventory accrual account during the period commencing from its fiscal year ended June 30, 1999 through its fiscal year ended June 30, 2006. Activity in this account for subsequent periods is also under review. At this time, the Company cannot estimate the amounts at issue.
A copy of the press release disclosing receipt of the notice is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated in this Item 3.01 by reference.
