Circuit City Reports Non-Compliance With NYSE

NYSE to assign ".BC" indicator to Circuit City's symbol to indicate it's below continued listing standards.

Circuit City has been notified by the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) that it didn't satisfy one of the standards for continued listing of the company's common stock.

The NYSE told Circuit City it was "below criteria" because the average closing price of the company's common stock was less than $1 per share for 30 straight trading days as of October 22.

In order to cure the deficiency for the continued listing standard, both Circuit City's common stock share price and the average share price must exceed $1 over a 30-day trading period by six months after the non-compliance notice.

Circuit City's common stock remains listed on the NYSE under the symbol "CC." The NYSE will, however, assign a ".BC" indicator to the symbol to show the company is below the continued listing standards.

The big-box retailer also recently reported that its director, Barbara Feigin, resigned after a 14-year tenure on the board.

In a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), Circuit City said Feigin's resignation was not related to any disagreement over the company's operations.
