Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

 

On April 4, 2019, Xtant Medical Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) received a letter from the NYSE American LLC (the “Exchange”) notifying the Company that it is not in compliance with the Exchange’s continued listing standards relating to stockholders’ equity.

 

Specifically, the Company is not in compliance with Section 1003(a)(i) of the Company Guide with stockholders’ equity of less than $2,000,000 and net losses in two of its three most recent fiscal years, Section 1003(a)(ii) with stockholders’ equity of less than $4,000,000 and net losses in three of its four most recent fiscal years and Section 1003(a)(iii) with stockholders’ equity of less than $6,000,000 and net losses in five of its most recent fiscal years. According to Section 1003(a) of the Company Guide, the Exchange will normally consider providing an exemption for entities not in compliance with Sections 1003(a)(i) through (a)(iii) of the Company Guide if the entity is in compliance with the following standards: (1) total value of market capitalization of at least $50,000,000; or total assets and revenue of $50,000,000 each in its last fiscal year, or in two of its last three fiscal years; and (2) the issuer has at least 1,100,000 shares publicly held, a market value of publicly held shares of at least $15,000,000 and 400 round lot shareholders. This exemption is not currently available to the Company due to the recent decline of its common stock price.

 

Therefore, the Company has become subject to the procedures and requirements of Section 1009 of the Company Guide and must submit a plan of compliance by May 4, 2019, addressing how the Company intends to regain compliance with Sections 1003(a)(i), 1003(a)(ii) and 1003(a)(iii) or meet the exemption in Section 1003(a) of the Company Guide by October 4, 2020.

 

The Company’s common stock will continue to trade on the Exchange under the symbol “XTNT,” with the added designation of “.BC” to indicate that the Company is not in compliance with the Exchange’s continued listing standards.

 

The Company intends to prepare and deliver a plan of compliance to the Exchange by May 4, 2019, addressing how the Company intends to regain compliance with Sections 1003(a)(i), 1003(a)(ii) and 1003(a)(iii) of the Company Guide by October 4, 2020. The Company has also been advised that it will be subject to delisting proceedings if it does not regain compliance prior to October 4, 2020 or if the Exchange determines that the Company is not making progress consistent with its plan of compliance.
