HOUSTON, Sept. 17, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Endeavour
International Corporation (NYSE: END) (LSE: ENDV) announced today
that the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") has notified the Company
that it is not in compliance with two of the NYSE's continued
listing standards.
The NYSE requires that the average closing price per share of a
listed company's stock be in excess of $1.00 for a consecutive 30-trading day period.
Under this continued listing criteria, Endeavour has a period of
six months, subject to possible extension, to bring its average
share price back over $1.00. The
Company's common stock expects to be listed and traded on the NYSE
during this period. Endeavour plans to notify the NYSE that it
anticipates that this deficiency will be cured and that it will
return to compliance with the NYSE continued listing standard.
In addition, the Company's total market capitalization has
averaged less than $50 million over a
consecutive 30 trading-day period and its last reported
shareholders' equity (deficit) was also below $50 million. In accordance with NYSE procedures,
Endeavour has 45-days from receipt of the NYSE notice to submit a
business plan to the NYSE demonstrating how it intends to comply
with the NYSE's continued listing standards. Endeavour intends to
develop and submit such a business plan to bring the Company in
compliance, within the required 18 month timeframe. The Company's
stock expects to trade on the NYSE during the plan period, subject
to the compliance with other NYSE continued listing
requirements.
