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

 

As previously disclosed, on December 18, 2015, Digital Power Corporation (the "Company") received notice from the New York Stock Exchange MKT LLC ("Exchange”) notifying the Company that it is no longer in compliance with Exchange continued listing standards because its stockholders' equity was below continued listing standards as set forth in Section 1003 of the Exchange Company Guide. Under the applicable Exchange listing rules, the Company had 30 days from the receipt of the notice to submit a plan that demonstrates how it intends to regain compliance with this continued listed standard within 18 months of the receipt of the notice.

 

In response to the December 18, 2015 letter, the Company submitted to the Exchange a plan to regain compliance with the listing standard and on March 9, 2016, the Company received notice from the Exchange that it has been granted a listing extension until June 19, 2017 on the basis of the plan submitted by the Company to regain compliance with listing standards.

 

On April 27, 2017, the Company received notice from the Exchange notifying the Company that due to its most recent loss for the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company must meet the $6 million or more in shareholders’ equity listing standard set forth under Section 1003(a)(iii) of the Exchange Company Guide because the Company has reported losses from continuing operations and/or net losses in five of its most recent fiscal years ended December 31, 2016.

 

The April 27, 2017 notice further states that the Company remains subject to the conditions set forth in the Exchange’s December 18, 2015 letter and if the Company is not in compliance with all of the Exchange’s continued listing standards by June 19, 2017 or does not make progress under its plan to regain recompliance during the plan period, the Exchange’s staff will initiate delisting procedures as appropriate.
