ZST Digital Networks, Inc. to Voluntarily Delist from NASDAQ
Press Release : ZST Digital Networks, Inc. – Fri, Apr 6, 2012 4:05 PM EDT
ZHENGZHOU, China, April 6, 2012 /PRNewswire-Asia-FirstCall/ -- ZST Digital Networks, Inc. ("ZST" or the "Company"), a major developer, manufacturer and supplier of digital and optical network equipment to cable system operators and providers of GPS tracking devices and support services for transport-related enterprises in China, today announced that its Board of Directors has decided to seek a voluntary delisting from the NASDAQ Global Market ("Nasdaq GM").
As previously disclosed in the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on March 30, 2012, BDO China Dahua CPA Co., Ltd. ("BDO") informed ZST of its decision to resign as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm, effective March 26, 2012. In addition, BDO informed the Company that BDO can no longer support its opinion dated March 3, 2011 relating to its audit of the Company's consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2010 contained in its Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 4, 2011. As a result, the Company anticipates that it will be unable to file its annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011 on a timely basis in accordance with the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
In view of the Company's inability to continue to comply with the NASDAQ's continued listing requirements set forth in Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) requiring filings to be made with the SEC on a timely basis, the Company has notified The NASDAQ Stock Market of its intent to voluntarily delist its common stock from the Nasdaq GM. The Company intends to file a Form 25 with the SEC on or about April 16, 2012 and anticipates that the delisting of its common stock will become effective on or about April 26, 2012. The Company expects that its common stock will be eligible for trading on the over-the-counter market thereafter. No assurance, however, can be made that trading in the Company's common stock on the over-the-counter market will commence or be maintained. Following delisting, the Company will continue to be subject to the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and intends to continue to file all periodic and other reports with the SEC under applicable federal securities laws as required.
