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

As previously disclosed, on May 3, 2023 the Company received a notification letter from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) stating that, because the Company has not yet filed its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 28, 2023, the Company is not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) (the “Rule”), which requires Nasdaq-listed companies to timely file all required periodic financial reports with the SEC.

On June 16, 2023, the Company received a revised notification letter (the “Revised Nasdaq Notice”) from the Listing Qualifications Department of Nasdaq stating that, because the Company has not filed its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended April 29, 2023, and because the Company has not yet filed its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 28, 2023, the Company remains not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1). The Revised Nasdaq Notice has no immediate effect on the listing or trading of the Company’s securities.

In the Revised Nasdaq Notice, Nasdaq reiterated that under Nasdaq rules and as previously disclosed, the Company continues to have until July 3, 2023, to submit a plan to regain compliance with the Rule. If Nasdaq accepts the Company’s plan, then Nasdaq may grant an exception of up to 180 calendar days from the due date of the Form 10-K, or until October 25, 2023, to regain compliance.
