Note: Information in this report is furnished pursuant to Item 3.01.
On July 3, 2008, Flight Safety Technologies, Inc. (AMEX:FLT) received notice from the American Stock Exchange that, based on the recent Amex status review of the company's plan to regain compliance with certain Amex continued listing standards, the Amex has determined it is appropriate for it to initiate delisting of the company's securities from the Amex. The company has decided to exercise its right to appeal the Amex delisting decision and has requested a hearing before a committee of the Amex. There can be no assurance the company's requests for continued listing will be granted as a result of such appeal or otherwise.
As previously announced, the company originally was notified by the Amex on October 12, 2007 that the company no longer complied with the Amex's continued listing standards due to shareholder's equity of less than $4 million and net losses in three of its four most recent fiscal years as set forth in Section 1003(a)(ii) of the Amex Company Guide, and that its securities would, therefore, be delisted from the Amex if the company did not show periodic progress in performing the plan of compliance the Amex accepted from the company on February 1, 2008.
The company is continuing to pursue various arrangements to fund its technologies and enhance its financial condition but there can be no assurance as to whether or when the company will complete any such arrangements or the impact of such arrangements on the company.
