Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
On February 24, 2021, Cemtrex, Inc. (the “Company”) received a notification letter from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that, because the Company has not yet filed its Form 10-Q for the period ended December 31, 2020, the Company no longer complies with Nasdaq’s Listing Rules for continued listing.
The notification letter also disclosed that Nasdaq may provide the Company a cure period in order to regain compliance as follows:
| ● | 60 calendar days to submit a plan to regain compliance and; | |
| ● | if the plan is accepted your plan, will be granted an exception of up to 180 calendar days from the Filing’s due date, or until August 23, 2021, to regain compliance. |
The Company intends to submit a plan to regain compliance with Nasdaq within 60 calendar days as required. If Nasdaq accepts the Company’s plan, it may grant an exception of up to 180 calendar days from the due date of the Company’s Form 10-Q, or until August 23, 2021, to regain compliance. The Company believes that it will be able to file its Form 10-Q for the period ended December 31, 2020 prior to the expiration of the stated cure period should Nasdaq accept the Company’s plan.
