BindView to Trade under BVEWE Symbol on Nasdaq Stock Market Pending 10-Q Filing; Company to Request Hearing with Nasdaq
HOUSTON --(Business Wire)-- Nov. 24, 2004 -- BindView Corp., (Nasdaq:BVEW) a leading provider of proactive business policy, IT security and directory management software, today announced it will begin trading under the BVEWE symbol effective Nov. 26, 2004. An "E" will be added to the Company's trading symbol pursuant to Nasdaq guidelines as a result of the Company's failure to file its Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended Sept. 30, 2004. The Form 10-Q filing has been delayed pending completion of a previously announced independent investigation of revenue recognition practices in its Latin American operations.
As announced on Oct. 28, 2004, the BindView Board of Directors' Audit Committee has retained independent counsel to investigate revenue recognition practices in its Latin American operations. The Company expects the investigation will be completed early next month, and that it will file its quarterly report on Form 10-Q and any amended filings containing restated results, on or before the end of the year. The Company expects that the "E" added to its trading symbol will be removed once these filings are made.
Nasdaq notified BindView on Nov. 23, 2004, that its common stock is subject to delisting from the Nasdaq National Market due to this failure to file the Form 10-Q pursuant to Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(14). BindView, in accordance with Nasdaq Marketplace Rules, will request a hearing before the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel. This requested hearing will automatically stay the delisting, pending the earlier of either the Company's regaining compliance by filing the third quarter 2004 Form 10-Q or the panel's final determination. The Company expects to file the Form 10-Q in advance of the hearing. In the interim, BindView will remain listed on the Nasdaq National Market.
