By letter dated December
17, 2019, received on December 17, 2019 by electronic transmission, to New Concept Energy, Inc. (the “Registrant”
or the “Issuer” or the “Company”), NYSE Regulation advised that a recent review of the Company
[Form 10-Q Quarterly Report for the quarter ended September 30, 2019] shows that it is below compliance with Section 1003(a)(ii)
since it reported a stockholder’s equity of $2.4 million as of September 30, 2019 and losses from continuing operations and/or
net losses in three of its four most recent fiscal years ended December 31, 2018. The letter is NYSE Regulation’s official
notice of noncompliance with the NYSE American continued listing standards and provides that the Company is now subject to the
procedures and requirements set forth in Section 1009 of the Company Guide, which include:
|
•
|
the Company making a public announcement through news media by December 21, 2019, disclosing the
fact that the Company is not currently in compliance with the continued listing standards of the NYSE American, and that the listing
is subject to compliance with certain cure provisions, with a target completion date of December 17, 2020 (twelve months from the
noncompliance notification date);
|
|
•
|
The Company must contact the NYSE American by December 21, 2019 to confirm receipt of the letter;
|
|
•
|
The Company must submit a plan to NYSE Regulation by January 17, 2020, advising of actions the
Company has taken or will take to regain compliance with the continued listing standards, which plan should include specific milestones,
quarterly financial projections and details related to any strategic initiatives the Company plans to complete.
|
|
•
|
If the plan is accepted but the Company is not in compliance with the continued listing standards
by December 17, 2020 or if the Company does not make progress consistent with the plan during the plan period, the Exchange Staff
may initiate delisting procedures.
|
The December 17, 2019 letter
also advised that the Company may be close to falling below compliance with the continued listing standards in Section 1003(a)(i)
of the Company Guide since it reported stockholder’s equity of $2.4 million as of September 30, 2019 and losses from continuing
operations and/or net losses in three of its four most recent fiscal years ended December 31, 2018, and the letter is to also serve
as an early warning of the Company’s potential noncompliance with Section 1003(a)(i).
