Item 3.01

Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

 

On July 22, 2020, Tailored Brands, Inc. (the “Company”) received written notice (the “Notice”) from the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) that the Company is no longer in compliance with the NYSE continued listing standards set forth in (i) Section 802.01B of the NYSE Listed Company Manual (the “Manual”), which prohibits the average global market capitalization of listed companies over a consecutive 30 trading-day period from being less than $50,000,000 at the same time stockholders’ equity is less than $50,000,000; and (ii) Section 802.01C of the Manual, which requires listed companies to maintain an average closing share price of at least $1.00 over a consecutive 30 trading-day period. As noted in the Notice, as of July 17, 2020, the 30 trading-day average closing price of the Company’s common shares was $0.97 per share, the 30 trading-day average global market capitalization was approximately $47.2 million and its last reported stockholders’ equity was approximately ($98.3) million as of February 1, 2020.

 

In accordance with Section 802.02 of the Manual, the Company has ten business days from receipt of the Notice to confirm to the NYSE receipt of the Notice and the Company’s intent to cure the deficiencies. Under NYSE rules, the Company may cure the deficiencies and regain compliance during the 18-month period following receipt of the Notice. If the Company fails to regain compliance with Sections 802.01B and 802.01C during the cure period, its common stock will be subject to the NYSE’s suspension and delisting procedures.

 

The Company’s common stock will continue to be listed and traded on the NYSE during the cure period, subject to continued compliance with the other listing requirements. However, the Company's common stock trading symbol “TLRD” will be assigned a “.BC” indicator by the NYSE to signify that the status of the stock is “below compliance” with the NYSE continued listing requirements. The “.BC” indicator will be removed when the Company regains compliance.

 

The NYSE notice does not affect the Company’s ongoing business operations or its Securities and Exchange Commission reporting requirements, nor does it trigger a breach of the Company’s material debt obligations. The Company can provide no assurances that it will be able to satisfy any of the steps outlined above and maintain the listing of its shares on the NYSE.

 

This report contains forward-looking information, including the Company’s statements regarding the potential to regain compliance with the NYSE continued listing requirements or potential extensions to cure. In addition, words such as “expects,” “anticipates,” “envisions,” “targets,” “goals,” “projects,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “seeks,” “estimates,” “guidance,” “may,” “projections,” and “business outlook,” variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements are made pursuant to the Safe Harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
