Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

 

On April 3, 2019, Emerge Energy Services, LP (the “Partnership”) received an expected notice from the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) indicating that the Partnership is not in compliance with the NYSE’s continued listing requirements under the timely filing criteria outlined in Section 802.01E of the NYSE Listing Company Manuel due to the delay in filing the Partnership’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018 (the “2018 Form 10-K”).

 

As previously disclosed, the Partnership reported in a Form 12b-25 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 19, 2019 that it was unable to file its 2018 Form 10-K within the prescribed time period without unreasonable effort or expense.

 

In accordance with NYSE rules, the Partnership has contacted the NYSE to discuss the status of the 2018 Form 10-K and issued a press release on April 9, 2019 pertaining to the late filing, which has been included as Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 8-K. The Partnership intends to file its 2018 Form 10-K as promptly as possible after its independent registered public accounting firm has completed its review and signoff.

 

The NYSE informed the Partnership that, under NYSE rules, the Partnership will have six months from the Form 10-K due date of March 18, 2019 to file the 2018 Form 10-K with the SEC. The Partnership can regain compliance with the NYSE listing standards at any time prior to that date by filing its 2018 Form 10-K. If the Partnership fails to file the 2018 Form 10-K before the NYSE may grant, at its sole discretion, an extension of up to six additional months for the Partnership to regain compliance, depending on the specific circumstances. The NYSE notice also reserves the right to commence delisting proceedings at any time if circumstances warrant.

 

Item 8.01 Other Events.

 

On April 9, 2019, the Partnership announced that the filing of its 2018 Form 10-K did not occur by the extended April 2, 2019 deadline. The Partnership continues to work diligently to complete the preparation of its consolidated financial statements in order to be in a position to file its 2018 Form 10-K with the SEC as promptly as possible after its independent registered public accounting firm completes its review.

 

This Form 8-K contains certain statements that are “forward-looking statements.” These statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology including “may,” “believe,” “will,” “expect,” “anticipate,” or “estimate.” These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, and there can be no assurance that actual results will not differ materially from those expected by management of the Partnership.  When considering these forward-looking statements, you should keep in mind the risk factors and other cautionary statements in the Partnership’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 filed with the SEC. The risk factors and other factors noted in the Annual Report could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement.  Except as required by law, the Partnership does not undertake any obligation to update or revise such forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances that occur after the date hereof.
