Sly, it is not uncommon for stocks to become listed again if they were delisted for failing to file their required SEC filings. To remedy that, they need only file the filings. If they are delisted for failing to meet the net tangible assets requirement, they need to raise capital, generally by selling stock or other equity, to get the net tangible assets up again to meet the 'new listing requirements', which are higher than the continued listing requirements that they previously failed to meet. Selling equity like this is difficult to do after the stock has been delisted, because fewer investors are interested in buying stock of companies that trade BB or pink sheets. So this type of delisting can often be a one-way street. You can find details about the listing requirements on the nasdaq server, nasdaq.com .
