RF Monolithics, Inc. Receives NASDAQ Capital Market Listing Approval
DALLAS--([ BUSINESS WIRE ])--RF Monolithics, Inc.'s (NASDAQ:RFMI) ("RFM" or the "Company"), a leader in machine-to-machine (M2M) wireless communications, today reported that it has received approval from NASDAQ to transfer the listing of its common stock from The NASDAQ Global Market to The NASDAQ Capital Market, effective at the opening of the market on Wednesday, December 31, 2008.
The NASDAQ Capital Market is a continuous trading market that operates in substantially the same manner as The NASDAQ Global Market. The NASDAQ Capital Market includes the securities of approximately 550 companies. RFM's trading symbol will remain "RFMI" and trading of the Company's common stock will be unaffected by the transfer.
RFM believes it is currently in compliance with all the Capital Market listing requirements except for the minimum $1 closing bid price. Previously, the Company received a deficiency letter from NASDAQ that it did not meet the minimum $1 closing bid price rule. Subsequently, NASDAQ suspended the enforcement of the rules requiring a minimum closing bid and RFM remains at that same stage of the process with respect to these rules.
RFM received notification on December 23, 2008 that the suspension will remain in effect through April 20, 2009, and therefore the Company's new qualifying date for compliance with the bid price requirement should be in October 2009. The Company can regain compliance, either during the suspension or during the compliance period resuming after the suspension, by achieving at least a $1 closing bid price for a minimum of 10 consecutive trading days.
