Item
3.01. Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued
Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
On July
15, 2010, Bioanalytical Systems, Inc. (the "Company") received a letter from the
NASDAQ Listing Qualification Department (the "Letter") stating that the Company
has failed to maintain at least a $1.00 minimum bid price for its common shares
(the "Minimum Bid Requirement") as required for continued listing of the
Company's common shares on the NASDAQ Capital Market..
The
Letter further stated that, under the listing rules, the Company has until
January 11, 2011 to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid
Requirement. If, at any time prior to January 11, 2011, the bid price
of the common shares closes at $1.00 or more for a minimum of 10 consecutive
business days, the Company will be in compliance with the Minimum Bid
Requirement. The Company intends to actively evaluate and monitor the
bid price for its common shares between now and January 11, 2011, and consider
implementation of various options available to the Company if its common shares
do not trade at a level that is likely to regain compliance. If the
Company's minimum bid does not increase to $1.00 per share or more for 10
consecutive business days prior to January 11, 2011, the Company could be
delisted from the NASDAQ Capital Market, in which case the common shares may be
traded over-the-counter.
