GIGAMEDIA Receives Nasdaq Staff Deficiency Letter
TAIPEI, Jan. 20, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- GigaMedia Limited (NASDAQ: GIGM), an online games and computing services provider, today announced that it received a Deficiency Letter for the minimum bid price requirement for continued listing, dated January 14, 2015, from the NASDAQ Stock Market LLC (the "Nasdaq Letter"). In the letter, it indicated that the Company failed to meet the minimum bid price requirement as set forth in Listing Rule 5450(a)(1). It has resulted from the fact that the bid price of the Company's common stock closed below US$1 per share for the last 30 consecutive business days.
In accordance with Nasdaq Stock Market Rule 5810 (c)(3)(A), GigaMedia has a grace period of 180 calendar days, or until July 13, 2015, to regain compliance. If at any time before July 13, 2015, the bid price of the Company's common stock closes at $1.00 per share or more for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days, Nasdaq will provide a written notification to the Company indicating that it complies with the Minimum Bid Price Rule.
Nasdaq Letter has no immediate impact on the listing of the Company's common stock on the Nasdaq Stock Market. The Company's common stock will continue to trade on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol "GIGM."
Gigamedia will monitor the bid price for its common stock between now and July 13, 2015, and will consider available options to resolve the deficiency and regain compliance with the Nasdaq minimum bid price requirement.
This announcement is made in compliance with Nasdaq Stock Market Rule 5810(b), which requires prompt disclosure of receipt of a deficiency notification.
