(NYSE American: NTN), announced it received a letter from the NYSE Regulation stating that it is not in compliance with NYSE American LLC continued listing standards. Specifically, the Company is not in compliance with Section 704 of the NYSE American Company Guide because it did not hold an annual meeting during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020.
NTN continues to not be in compliance with Sections 1003(a)(i), (ii) and (iii) of the Company Guide because it reported stockholders equity of less than $2 million, $4 million and $6 million as of June 30, 2020, March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. As a result, NTN became subject to the procedures and requirements of Section 1009 of the Company Guide, which included submitting a plan to NYSE Regulation advising of actions NTN has taken or will take to regain compliance with Sections 1003(a)(i), (ii) and (iii) of the Company Guide by September 27, 2021.

NTN can give no assurances that it will be able to maintain the listing of its common stock on the NYSE American. NTN's common stock could be delisted because it does not make progress consistent with its plan during the plan period, because it does not regain compliance with Sections 1003(a)(i), (ii) and (iii) by September 27, 2021, because it does not regain compliance with Section 704, or because its falls below compliance with other NYSE American listing standards.
