ITEM 3.01. Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Delisting Rule; Transfer of Listing
As previously reported, Nasdaq initiated delisting procedures as a result of the Companys failure to file its 10-Q for July 31, 2006 in a timely manner. That report has not yet been filed. On December 13, 2006, Nasdaq notified the Company that Nasdaqs Listing Qualifications Panel granted the Companys request for continued listing subject to the submission of written information in response to certain questions relating to its previously announced audit committee investigation of allegations regarding the timing of recognition of revenue in Flow Asia and the filing of all delinquent reports and all necessary restatements by January 31, 2007. The delinquent reports are the Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended July 31, 2006 and October 31, 2006. The necessary restatement is the restatement of the financial statements in the Annual Report for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2006, which report will be amended.
On December 13, 2006 Flow International Corporation (Flow or the Company) received notification from Nasdaq that it was not in compliance with Nasdaq Rule 4310(c)(14) because the Company had not filed its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended October 31, 2006 in a timely manner. The Company will not be able to file the Quarterly Report for October 31, 2006 until it files the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended July 31, 2006 and an amended Annual Report of 10-K for the year ended April 30, 2006. The Company has consulted Nasdaq and been informed that the delisting as a result of the delinquency of the 10-Q for the quarter ended October 31, 2006 will be stayed in accordance, and subject to compliance, with the conditions in the notification referred to in the preceding paragraph. Accordingly, when the Company complies with the conditions in the notification, it will not be delisted as a result of the delinquency of the 10-Q for the quarter ended October 31, 2006. .
The Company will promptly supply the Listing Qualifications Panel with the requested information. At this point, the Company believes that it will file the amended 10-K and the delinquent 10-Qs before January 31, 2007.
