SigmaTron International (SGMA) has received a delinquency notification from Nasdaq due to the late filing of its Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2024. The company attributes the delay to ongoing negotiations with lenders regarding credit agreement amendments. While this non-compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) doesn't immediately affect SGMA's listing, the company must submit a compliance plan by October 15, 2024. If accepted, Nasdaq may grant an extension until February 12, 2025 for SGMA to regain compliance. The company is currently working on completing the Form 10-K.

SigmaTron International (SGMA) ha ricevuto una notifica di morosità da Nasdaq a causa del ritardo nella presentazione del suo Modello 10-K per l'anno fiscale terminato il 30 aprile 2024. L'azienda attribuisce il ritardo a trattative in corso con i finanziatori riguardo alle modifiche agli accordi di credito. Anche se questa non conformità alla Regola di quotazione 5250(c)(1) di Nasdaq non influisce immediatamente sulla quotazione di SGMA, l'azienda deve presentare un piano di conformità entro il 15 ottobre 2024. Se accettato, Nasdaq potrebbe concedere un'estensione fino al 12 febbraio 2025 per consentire a SGMA di tornare in conformità. Attualmente, l'azienda sta lavorando per completare il Modello 10-K.

Insights

SigmaTron's delayed 10-K filing raises significant concerns about the company's financial health and operational stability. The ongoing negotiations with lenders J.P. Morgan Chase and TCW Asset Management suggest potential liquidity issues or covenant breaches. This situation could lead to stricter lending terms or reduced credit availability, impacting SigmaTron's financial flexibility. The delay in financial reporting also increases uncertainty for investors and may erode market confidence. While Nasdaq's grace period provides some breathing room, failure to file within the extended deadline could result in delisting, severely affecting the stock's liquidity and value. Investors should closely monitor the company's progress in submitting its compliance plan and eventual 10-K filing for a clearer picture of SigmaTron's financial position.

The Nasdaq notice puts SigmaTron in a precarious legal position. The company now faces a tight deadline to submit a credible compliance plan by October 15, 2024. Failure to do so, or to meet the extended February 2025 deadline if granted, could result in delisting proceedings. This situation exposes SigmaTron to potential shareholder litigation risks, especially if the delay is found to stem from material issues or mismanagement. The company must tread carefully in its public disclosures to avoid any statements that could be construed as misleading. Additionally, the ongoing lender negotiations hint at possible covenant violations or the need for debt restructuring, which could trigger further legal and financial complications. SigmaTron's management must prioritize transparency and swift resolution to mitigate these legal risks.

ELK GROVE VILLAGE, Ill., Aug. 21, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SigmaTron International, Inc. (the “Company”) announced today that on August 16, 2024, it received a delinquency notification letter from the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) indicating that the Company is not in compliance with the continued listing requirements under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) because the Company did not timely file its Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2024 (the “Form 10-K”). The notification letter has no immediate effect on the listing or trading of the Company’s common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market.

The Company filed a Notification of Late Filing on Form 12b-25 on July 30, 2024, indicating that the filing of the Form 10-K would be delayed because the Company requires additional time to complete its year-end close procedures in light of ongoing negotiations with the Company’s lenders with respect to amendments to the credit agreements with J.P. Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. and TCW Asset Management Company, as Administrative Agent. These processes require significant resources from the Company’s financial, accounting and administrative personnel and, as a result, the Company requires additional time to complete its quarterly review, including the preparation and finalization of its Form 10-K.

Nasdaq has informed the Company that the Company must submit a plan of compliance (the “Plan”) within 60 calendar days, or no later than October 15, 2024, addressing how it intends to regain compliance with Nasdaq’s listing rules and, if Nasdaq accepts the Plan, it may grant an extension of up to 180 calendar days from the Form 10-K original filing due date, or until February 12, 2025, to regain compliance.

The Company is working on completing the Form 10-K.
