Skyline Medical Inc (NASDAQ:SKLN) (“Skyline” or the “Company”), producer of the FDA-approved STREAMWAY® System for automated, direct-to-drain medical fluid disposal, today announced that it received a letter from the Listing Qualifications Department of the NASDAQ Capital Market notifying the Company that it has regained compliance with the Nasdaq Listing Rule (the "Rule") requiring companies to maintain a minimum of $2,500,000 in stockholders' equity for continued listing as of January 10, 2018.

As previously disclosed, on November 21, 2017, the Company received a notice from NASDAQ stating that the Company was not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) (the "Stockholders' Equity Rule") because the Company did not have a minimum stockholders' equity, as of September 30, 2017, of $2.5 million and the Company did not alternatively meet the market capitalization or income from continuing operations tests.

The Company regained compliance with the stockholders' equity requirement as a result of the completion of two successful financings, the first of which was completed on November 28, 2017 and totaled $1.3 million before expenses, and the second of which was completed on January 9, 2018 and totaled approximately $2.5 million before expenses.

About Skyline Medical

Skyline Medical produces a fully automated, patented, FDA-cleared waste fluid disposal system that virtually eliminates staff exposure to blood, irrigation fluid and other potentially infectious fluids found in the healthcare environment. Antiquated manual fluid handling methods that require hand carrying and emptying filled fluid canisters present an exposure risk and potential liability. Skyline Medical's STREAMWAY System fully automates the collection, measurement and disposal of waste fluids and is designed to: 1) reduce overhead costs to hospitals and surgical centers; 2) improve compliance with OSHA and other regulatory agency safety guidelines; 3) improve efficiency in the operating room, and radiology and endoscopy departments, thereby leading to greater profitability; and 4) provide greater environmental stewardship by helping to eliminate the approximately 50 million potentially disease-infected canisters that go into landfills each year in the U.S.  For additional information, please visit www.skylinemedical.com.
