A company that is formed by a Reverse Merger is eligible to submit an application for initial listing only if the combined entity has, immediately before filing the listing application: (i) traded for at least one year in the U.S. over-the-counter market, on another national securities exchange, or on a foreign regulated exchange, following the filing with the SEC or other Regulatory Authority of all required information about the transaction, including audited financial statements for the combined entity; and (ii) maintained a closing price of $4 per share or higher for a sustained period of time, but in no event for less than 30 of the most recent 60 trading days.
In addition, such a company may only be approved for listing if, at the time of approval, it has: (i) timely filed all required periodic financial reports with the SEC or other Regulatory Authority (Forms 10-Q or 10-K) for the prior year, including at least one annual report and (ii) maintained a closing price of $4 per share or higher for a sustained period of time, but in no event for less than 30 of the most recent 60 trading days prior to approval.
