Acorn International Regains Compliance With NYSE Continued Listing Standard for Minimum Share Price

Acorn International Regains Compliance With NYSE Continued Listing Standard for Minimum Share Price

SHANGHAI, June 30, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Acorn International, Inc. (NYSE: ATV) ("Acorn" or the "Company") today announced that as of June 1, 2015 it has regained compliance with the minimum share price criteria required by the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") for continued listing of the Company's American depositary shares ("ADS") (each representing three of Acorn's ordinary shares).

As previously disclosed, Acorn received a notice from the NYSE on March 19, 2015 that it was not in compliance with the NYSE continued listing standard requiring a listed security to maintain a minimum average closing price of US$1.00 per share over a consecutive 30-trading-day period.

In a recent letter, the NYSE notified Acorn that it had satisfied the NYSE's standard by virtue of the fact that as of June 1, 2015, both the closing price of Acorn's ADSs and the average closing ADS price over the preceding 30 consecutive trading days were in excess of the $1.00 minimum threshold required by the NYSE. As a result of this occurrence, Acorn has regained compliance with the relevant NYSE continued listing criteria within the prescribed time and the ADSs will continue to be traded on the NYSE, subject to Acorn's continued compliance with all applicable NYSE requirements.
