Borland Receives Nasdaq Delisting Notice Due To Delayed Form 10-K
CUPERTINO, Calif. --(Business Wire)-- April 7, 2006 Borland Software Corporation (NASDAQ:BORL) ("Borland"), the global leader for Software Delivery Optimization (SDO), announced today that on April 3, 2006 it received a notice from the staff of The Nasdaq Stock Market stating that Borland is not in compliance with Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(14) because it has not timely filed its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005 (the "2005 Form 10-K"). The notice is automatically generated by Nasdaq and indicated that due to such noncompliance, Borland's common stock will be subject to delisting. Borland intends to request a hearing before a Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel (the "Panel") to appeal the Nasdaq staff's determination. The hearing request will automatically stay the delisting of Borland's common stock pending the Panel's decision. There can be no assurance, however, that the Panel will grant Borland's request or that Borland's common stock will not be delisted.
Borland and its audit committee are working diligently to finalize and file the 2005 Form 10-K as promptly as possible.
