AENZA S.A.A. Receives Notice Regarding NYSE Continued Listing Standards
AENZA S.A.A. (the “Company”) hereby informs that, on October 18, 2022, the Company received a letter (the “Notice”) from the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) notifying the Company that it is below criteria with respect to the average closing price criteria of the continued listing standard of the NYSE applicable to the Company’s American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”) because, as of October 17, 2022, the average closing price of the Company’s ADSs was less than US$1.00 per ADS over a consecutive 30 trading-day period (the “ADS price deficiency”).
Pursuant to Section 802.01C of the NYSE Listed Company Manual and the Notice, the Company has six months (the “Cure Period”) following receipt of the Notice to regain compliance with the minimum share price requirement. The Company can regain compliance at any time during the Cure Period if on the last trading day of any calendar month during the Cure Period the Company has a closing share price of at least $1.00 and an average closing share price of at least $1.00 over the 30 trading-day period ending on the last trading day of that month. In the event that at the expiration of the Cure Period, both a $1.00 closing share price on the last trading day of the Cure Period and a $1.00 average closing share price over the 30 trading-day period ending on the last trading day of the Cure Period are not attained, the NYSE will commence suspension and delisting procedures.
The Notice has no immediate effect on the Company’s NYSE listing or the trading of its ADSs. The Company has notified the NYSE on October 27, 2022 of its intent to cure the ADS price deficiency. To address the ADS price deficiency, the Company intends to change the ratio of its ADSs to its ordinary shares. The Company will monitor the market conditions of its listed securities and is considering all alternatives available to it. During the Cure Period, the Company’s ADSs will continue to be listed and traded on the NYSE, subject to its compliance with other NYSE continued listing standards and other rights of the NYSE to delist the ADSs.
