eDiets.com, Inc. (NASDAQ: DIET), a leading provider of convenient at-home diet, fitness and healthy lifestyle solutions, today announced that its securities will be suspended from The NASDAQ Capital Market prior to the opening of trading on Friday, December 2, 2011. Beginning with the opening of trading on Friday, December 2, 2011, eDiets' common stock will trade on the OTC Bulletin Board ("OTCBB"). The Company's common stock will continue to trade under the symbol "DIET."

As previously reported, the NASDAQ Listing Qualifications Panel required the Company to evidence a minimum of $2.5 million in stockholders' equity, as required under NASDAQ Listing Rule 5505(b), on or before November 30, 2011 to maintain its NASDAQ listing. The Company did not regain compliance and, on November 30, 2011, received notice that NASDAQ intends to delist the Company's securities.

The Company does not intend to appeal NASDAQ's determination since it believes its efforts are better directed towards improving the Company's performance and executing its business plan. The Company will maintain the registration of its common stock with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and will continue to file periodic, quarterly and annual reports with the SEC.
