GeoGlobal Announces NYSE MKT's Notice of Intent to File Delisting Application
April 22 2013 - 6:00PM
Marketwired
GeoGlobal Resources Inc. (the "Company") (NYSE MKT:GGR) received
notice from the NYSE MKT LLC (the "Exchange") on April 17, 2013,
the Exchange notified the Company that it intends to strike the
common stock of the Company from Exchange by filing a delisting
application with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC")
pursuant to Section 1009(d) of the NYSE MKT Company Guide ("Company
Guide").
As previously released the Company received a letter from the
Exchange on November 30, 2012, indicating that the Company was not
in compliance with two of the continued listing standards as set
forth in Section 1003(a)(iv) and Section 1003(f)(v) of the Company
Guide.
The Company was afforded the opportunity to submit a Plan of
compliance (the "Plan") to the Exchange and on December 31, 2012
presented its Plan to the Exchange.
On February 15, 2013, the Exchange notified the Company that it
accepted the Company's Plan of compliance and granted the Company
an extension until May 31, 2013 (the "Plan Period") to regain
compliance with the continued listing standards. However, the
Company will be subject to periodic review by Exchange Staff during
the Plan Period. Failure to make progress consistent with the plan
or to regain compliance with the continued listing standards by the
end of the Plan Period could result in the Company being delisted
from the NYSE MKT LLC.
The April 17, 2013 notice to file the delisting application is
based on careful review by the Exchange of publicly available
information and information provided by the Company. The Exchange
has determined that the Company has not made progress consistent
with the Plan and failed to present a reasonable basis to conclude
that the Company can regain compliance with the Exchange's
continued listing standards by the end of the Plan Period.
In accordance with Sections 1203 and 1009(d) of the Company
Guide, the Company has a limited right to appeal the Exchange's
determination, until April 24, 2013, by requesting an oral hearing
or a hearing based on a written submission before a Listing
Qualifications Panel (a "Panel") and the Panel may only authorize
the continued listing of the Company's securities as permitted by
Section 1009 and 1204(c) of the Company Guide. If the Company
elects not to appeal the Exchange's determination by April 24,
2013, it will become final and Exchange will then suspend trading
in the Company's securities and file an application with the SEC to
strike Company's common stock from listing and registration on the
Exchange in accordance with Section 12 of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934 and rules promulgated thereunder.
As previously announced, the Company has not filed with the US
and Canadian Regulatory authorities its audited consolidated
financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2012, that was
due to be filed on April 16, 2013. The timely filing of such report
is a condition for the Company's continued listing on the Exchange,
as required by Sections 134 and 1101 of the Company Guide.
The Company is currently reviewing its right to appeal and the
current options available with respect to maintaining the listing.
Management continues to work on the transactions contained in the
Plan as approved by the Exchange so that an appeal may be launched
and compliance regained as per the Exchanges requirements.
