ASAT Holdings Regains Nasdaq Compliance

HONG KONG and MILPITAS, Calif., – October 22, 2007 – ASAT Holdings Limited (Nasdaq: ASTT) (the “Company” or “ASAT”), a global provider of semiconductor package design, assembly and test services, previously announced on September 21, 2007 that the Company received a Nasdaq Staff Determination letter dated September 17, 2007, indicating that the Company’s market value of listed securities had been below $35,000,000 as required for continued inclusion by Marketplace Rule 4320(e)(2)(B) (the “Rule”) and that its American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”) were, therefore, subject to delisting.

On September 24, 2007, ASAT requested an appeal hearing before a Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel (the “Panel”) to avoid delisting. ASAT subsequently appealed to the Panel and provided information and other communication to the Panel.

On October 17, 2007, ASAT was informed by the Panel that the Company had regained compliance with the $35,000,000 market value requirement. As a result, the appeal hearing will be moot and cancelled, and ASAT’s ADSs shall remain listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market.
