Item 8.01 Other Events.
As previously disclosed, Pure Bioscience, Inc., or the Company, is pursuing an appeal of the potential delisting of the Company’s common stock from the NASDAQ Capital Market based on noncompliance with certain applicable listing rules related to the minimum bid price of the Company’s common stock and the Company’s stockholders’ equity. In connection with such appeal, an oral hearing before a NASDAQ Hearings Panel, or the Panel, was initially scheduled for April 26, 2012. On April 18, 2012, the Company received written notification from the NASDAQ Stock Market that the date of such hearing has been rescheduled to May 17, 2012. The Company’s common stock will remain listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market pending the Panel’s decision on the Company’s appeal.
As previously disclosed, the Company expects to continue to pursue its appeal to attempt to maintain its listing, but its efforts may not be successful and the Company’s common stock may be delisted from the NASDAQ Capital Market.
