Thanks for the post Hal and it looks like we'll be on the AMEX for another year at least.
Ampex Corporation's Listing on American Stock Exchange to be Continued Pursuant to Extension
REDWOOD CITY, Calif., Jun 28, 2002 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Ampex Corporation (Amex:AXC) today announced that the American Stock Exchange (the "Amex") has accepted the Company's plan to bring itself into compliance with the Amex listing requirements no later than June 30, 2003, and is continuing the listing of its Common Shares pursuant to an extension. By such date, the Company will be required to have Common Shareholders' Equity in excess of $4 million. At March 31, 2002, the Company reported a Common Shareholders' Deficit of approximately $124 million.
The Company's plan for attaining compliance with the Amex's continued listing requirements is dependent on a number of factors that are beyond its control, including equity capital market conditions. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the Company will attain compliance within the extension period or at any future date. Furthermore, the Amex has advised the Company that it may initiate delisting proceedings at any time, notwithstanding the extension it has provided to the Company.
