Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
On November 18, 2019, Tandy Leather Factory, Inc. (the “Company”) received a notice from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) stating that because the Company has not yet filed its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three- and nine-months ended September 30, 2019 (the “Form 10-Q”), the Company is not in compliance with the continued listing requirements of Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1). Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1), in pertinent part, requires the Company to timely file all required periodic reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company previously reported (in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed on August 23, 2019) its filing delay and notice of delinquency from Nasdaq relating to its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three- and six-months ended June 30, 2019.
The Company submitted to Nasdaq on October 21, 2019, its plan to regain compliance. Nasdaq has accepted this plan and granted the Company an extension until February 17, 2020 to regain compliance by filing the Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for both of the quarters ended June 30 and September 30, 2019. The notice has no immediate effect on the listing or trading of the Company’s common stock on the Nasdaq Global Market.
On November 25, 2019, the Company issued a press release announcing its receipt of the Nasdaq letter. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
