15 December 2007 - 8:37AM
Business Wire
American Telecom Services Inc. (AMEX: TES), a provider of converged
communications solutions, today announced that the American Stock
Exchange (the �Exchange�) has accepted the Company�s plan of
remediation with respect to its delinquent Annual Report on Form
10-K for its fiscal year ended June 30, 2007 and that the Company
has made a reasonable demonstration of its ability to regain
compliance with the applicable continued listing standards of the
Exchange and that the Company�s listing on the exchange will be
continued pursuant to an extension granted that will expire on
January 16, 2008. Additionally, the Company received a notice from
the Exchange of its determination that the Company has a financial
impairment based on a review of summary financial statements that
will be included in the Company�s Annual Report on Form 10-K, that
will be filed within the coming week. The summary financials
indicated losses and resulting levels of shareholder equity that
were below the Exchange�s continued listing standards. The Company
is required to submit a plan of remediation (the �Plan�) by January
4, 2008 advising the Exchange of any action it has taken, or will
take, that would bring the Company into compliance with the
Exchange�s continued listing standards within a 6-month period.
Upon receipt of the Plan, the Exchange will evaluate it and
determine whether the Company has made a reasonable demonstration
of an ability to regain compliance with the Exchange�s continued
listing standards. If the Plan is accepted, the Company may be able
to continue its listing during the Plan period, during which time
it will be subject to periodic reviews to determine whether it is
making progress consistent with the Plan. The payment of dividends
on the Company�s 8% Convertible Preferred Stock will be delayed.
The dividend payment is due on December 15, 2007. According to the
terms contained in the Company�s Certificate of Designation for
such Preferred Stock, this delay in payment will result in an
increase in the dividend rate from 8% to 12% during the time that
the dividend arrearage remains in effect. About American Telecom
