Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
On May 31, 2024, Altisource Asset Management Corporation (the “Company”) received a notification letter (the “Notice”) from the NYSE American LLC (the “NYSE American”) indicating that the Company is not in compliance with the NYSE American continued listing standards set forth in Sections 1003(a)(ii) and (iii) of the NYSE American Company Guide. Section 1003(a)(ii) of the NYSE American Company Guide requires a listed company’s stockholders’ equity be at least $4.0 million if it has reported losses from continuing operations and/or net losses in three of its four most recent fiscal years. Section 1003(a)(iii) of the NYSE American Company Guide requires a listed company’s stockholders’ equity be at least $6.0 million if it has reported losses from continuing operations and/or net losses in its five most recent fiscal years. The Notice noted that the Company reported stockholders’ equity of $3.3 million as of March 31, 2024, and losses from continuing operations and/or net losses in its five most recent fiscal years ended December 31, 2023. The Notice also noted that the Company is not currently eligible for any exemption set forth in Section 1003(a) of the NYSE American Company Guide.
In order to maintain the Company’s listing on the NYSE American, the NYSE American has requested that the Company submit a plan of compliance (the “Plan”) by June 30, 2024, addressing how the Company intends to regain compliance with Sections 1003(a)(ii) and (iii) of the NYSE American Company Guide by December 1, 2024.
The Company’s management has begun its analysis regarding submission of the Plan to the NYSE American by the June 30, 2024 deadline. If the NYSE American accepts the Company’s Plan, the Company will be able to continue its listing during the Plan period and will be subject to continued periodic review by the NYSE American staff. If the Plan is not submitted, or not accepted, or is accepted but the Company does not make progress consistent with the Plan during the Plan period, the Company will be subject to delisting procedures as set forth in the NYSE American Company Guide.
The Company is committed to considering available options to regain compliance with the NYSE American’s stockholders’ equity requirements. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to achieve compliance with the NYSE American’s continued listing standards within the required time frame.
The notice has no immediate impact on the listing of the Company’s shares of common stock, which will continue to be listed and traded on the NYSE American during this period, subject to the Company’s compliance with the other listing requirements of the NYSE American. The common stock will continue to trade under the symbol “AAMC,” but will have an added designation of “.BC” to indicate the status of the common stock as “below compliance.” The notice does not affect the Company's ongoing business operations or its reporting requirements with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
If the Company’s common stock ultimately were to be delisted for any reason, it could negatively impact the Company by (i) reducing the liquidity and market price of the Company’s common stock; (ii) reducing the number of investors willing to hold or acquire the common stock, which could negatively impact the Company’s ability to raise equity financing; and (iii) limiting the Company’s ability to use a registration statement to offer and sell freely tradable securities, thereby preventing the Company from accessing the public capital markets; and (iv) impairing the Company’s ability to provide equity incentives to its employees.
Item 8.01 Other Events.
On June 6, 2024, in accordance with the NYSE American Company Guide, the Company issued a press release discussing the matters disclosed in Item 3.01 above. A copy of the press release is included herewith as Exhibit 99.1, which is incorporated by reference into this Item 8.01.
