INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS FORM 6-K REPORT 

On November 13, 2019, Borqs Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) received a notice (the “Notice”) from the Staff of the Listing Qualifications Department (the “Staff”) of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) indicating that the Company is not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) because it did not file its Annual Report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018 by November 11, 2019, the extended deadline previously approved by the Staff for filing such report. Therefore, the Company’s ordinary shares may be subject to delisting from The Nasdaq Capital Market unless the Company timely requests a hearing before a Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “Panel”).

The Company intends to appeal the Staff’s determination and regain compliance with the applicable Nasdaq listing requirements by the time it completes the appeal process. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to satisfy the applicable listing requirements. The request for a hearing will automatically stay the suspension of the Company’s securities for a period of 15 days from the date of the request. The Company intends to request a further stay of the suspension to remain in place until the hearing by the Panel takes place and the Panel issues a decision; however, there can be no assurance that such extended stay will be granted.

 

Attached to this report on Form 6-K as Exhibit 1 is a copy of the press release of the Company, dated November 19, 2019, to announce its receipt of the Notice and its plans in response thereto.

 

Forward-Looking Statements

The information above includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. All statements, other than statements of historical facts, included herein are forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements may be identified by their use of terms and phrases such as “may,” “expect,” “estimate,” “project,” “plan,” “believe,” “intend,” “achievable,” “anticipate,” “will,” “continue,” “potential,” “should,” “could,” and similar terms and phrases. Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable, they do involve certain assumptions, risks and uncertainties. These forward-looking statements represent the Company’s current expectations or beliefs concerning future events, and it is possible that the results described in this release will not be achieved. These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions identified in this release or as disclosed from time to time in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Factors that could cause actual results to differ from the Company’s expectations include the risk that any appeal, if filed, will not be successful; uncertainties relating to the ability of the Company to cure any delinquencies in compliance with Nasdaq listing rules; risks relating to the substantial costs and diversion of personnel’s attention and resources due to these matters; and other factors described in the Company’s filings with the SEC. As a result of these factors, actual results may differ materially from those indicated or implied by forward-looking statements.

Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made, and, except as required by law, the Company does not undertake any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. New factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for the Company to predict all such factors.
