FTE Networks Receives Notice from NYSE Regulation Regarding Late Filing of Annual Report

NEW YORK, April 22, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- FTE Networks, Inc. (NYSE American: FTNW) ("FTE" or the "Company"), a leading provider of innovative technology solutions for smart platforms, network infrastructure and intelligent buildings, today announced that on April 17, 2019, the Company received a notice of non-compliance with the continued listing standards set forth in Section 1007 of the Company Guide (the "Company Guide") of NYSE American LLC (the "Exchange"). This notice of noncompliance is predicated on the Company’s failure to timely file its Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018 (the "2018 Form 10-K") with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC").

As disclosed in a Form 12b-25 filed with the SEC on April 1, 2019, the Company was unable to file the 2018 Form 10-K within the prescribed time period without unreasonable effort or expense due to an ongoing independent investigation related to whether Company management had the proper authorization to issue certain convertible notes and the related shares issuable upon conversion of these convertible notes, as well as certain other debt instruments and equity transactions; issues related to the accounting for and disclosure of certain expenses incurred by management; and the appropriateness and disclosure of certain related party transactions. Additional time is also needed for the Company to file any necessary restatements of its financial statements for the periods noted in the Company’s Form 8-K filed with the SEC on April 4, 2019. The Company intends to file the 2018 Form 10-K as soon as practicable.

The Company’s common stock will continue to be listed on the Exchange under the ticker symbol "FTNW" while it attempts to regain compliance with the listing standard noted, but will have an added designation of ".LF" to signify the Company’s late filing status.

The Company is making this announcement in compliance with Section 1007 of the Company Guide, which requires prompt disclosure of receipt of a notification of noncompliance with the Exchange’s continued listing standards.
