VIA optronics AG Announces Receipt of Notice Regarding NYSE Continued Listing Standards

VIA optronics AG (NYSE: VIAO) (“VIA” or the “Company”), a leading supplier of interactive display systems and solutions, today announced that on December 19, 2023 it received a letter from the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) notifying the Company that it is below the NYSE's continued listing standards due to the trading price of the Company’s listed shares.

Pursuant to Section 802.01C of the NYSE's Listed Company Manual, a company will be considered to be below compliance standards if the average closing price of its security is less than US $1.00 over a consecutive 30 trading-day period. The Company has six months (the "Cure Period") following receipt of the notice to regain compliance with the minimum share price requirement. The Company can regain compliance at any time during the cure period if on the last trading day of any calendar month during the cure period the company has a closing share price of at least US $1.00 and an average closing share price of at least US $1.00 over the 30 trading-day period ending on the last trading day of that month. In the event that at the expiration of the six-month cure period, both a US $1.00 closing share price on the last trading day of the cure period and a US $1.00 average closing share price over the 30 trading-day period ending on the last trading day of the cure period are not attained, the NYSE will commence suspension and delisting procedures.

The Company has notified the NYSE on December 22, 2023 of its intent to cure within the applicable time period. The Company’s common stock will continue to be listed and trade on the NYSE during the cure period, subject to the Company’s compliance with other NYSE continued listing standards. The Company’s receipt of the Letter does not affect the Company’s business, operations or reporting requirements with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
