PR Newswire (US)
FRANKLIN, Wis., June 22 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- VUANCE, Ltd.
(NASDAQ: VUNC), a leading provider of innovative Radio Frequency
Verification Solutions, including active RFID, electronic access
control, credentialing, accountability and incident response
management, today announced that the NASDAQ Listing Qualifications
Panel (the "Panel") has granted the Company's request for an
extension of time to achieve full compliance with the applicable
NASDAQ Capital Market ("NASDAQ") listing requirements. As disclosed
on December 16, 2008, March 26, 2009 and April 2, 2009, the Company
was previously notified by NASDAQ that it no longer satisfied the
stockholders' equity requirement for continued listing on NASDAQ,
as set forth in Listing Rule 5550(b) (formerly Marketplace Rule
4310(c)(3)). In response, the Company appeared before the Panel at
a hearing on April 30, 2009. The Panel's decision, and the
Company's continued listing on NASDAQ, is subject to the Company's
compliance with certain conditions, including demonstration by the
Company that it has regained compliance with NASDAQ's minimum
stockholders' equity requirement of $2.5 million or with one of the
alternative listing criteria, as set forth in NASDAQ Listing Rule
5550(b), by September 28, 2009. While the Company is executing on
its plan to regain compliance, there can be no assurance that the
Company will be able to do so. Should the Company be unable to meet
the exception requirement, the Panel will issue a final
determination to delist the Company's shares and, unless the Nasdaq
Listing and Hearings Review Council issues a stay, will suspend
trading of the Company's shares on NASDAQ effective on the second
business day from the date of the final determination. About VUANCE
