Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
On August 15, 2023, DZS Inc. (the “Company”) received a delinquency notification letter from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) indicating that, as a result of the Company’s delay in filing its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2023 (the “Form 10-Q”), the Company is not in compliance with the timely filing requirement for continued listing under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1). The notification letter has no immediate effect on the listing or trading of the Company’s common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market.
The Company filed a Notification of Late Filing on Form 12b-25 on August 9, 2023, indicating, among other things, that the filing of the Form 10-Q would be delayed principally due to the ongoing review by the Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors of the Company’s accounting for revenue recognition and the extent to which these matters affect the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting in connection with the need to restate the Company’s previously issued unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2023 (the “Subject Period”).
Nasdaq has informed the Company that the Company must submit a plan of compliance (the “Plan”) within 60 calendar days, or no later than October 16, 2023, addressing how it intends to regain compliance with Nasdaq’s listing rules and, if Nasdaq accepts the Plan, it may grant an extension of up to 180 calendar days from the Form 10-Q original filing due date, or until February 5, 2024, to regain compliance.
The Company plans to file the Form 10-Q as soon as reasonably practicable following the completion of the Audit Committee’s review and the restatement.
The description of the restatement and accounting error above is preliminary, unaudited and subject to further change in connection with the ongoing Audit Committee review and the completion of the restatement. Accordingly, there can be no assurance as to the actual effects of the restatement or that the Company will not determine to restate any financial statements for periods other than the Subject Period or with respect to any additional accounting errors. Moreover, there can be no assurance as to what period the revenue previously recognized in the Subject Period will ultimately be recognized.
Item 8.01 Other Events.
The Company issued a press release on August 18, 2023 disclosing the Company’s receipt of the Nasdaq notification letter. A copy of that press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and incorporated by reference herein.
