BRIDGEWATER, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Synchronoss Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: SNCR), a global leader and innovator in cloud, messaging, digital, and IoT products and platforms, today announced that it does not expect to regain compliance with the continued listing requirements set by the Nasdaq Hearings Panel prior to May 10, 2018.
Synchronoss continues to work diligently to complete the restatement and regain compliance with its SEC reporting obligations as soon as practicable. Although the Company believes its auditors are in the final stages of completing their audit, there remain some matters that have taken longer to finalize than initially anticipated.
On the March 28 business update call Synchronoss provided comments on certain items related to the restatement process. These have not changed. The company continues to anticipate that none of these items will have an impact on the company’s cash position. These are preliminary positions and are subject to change as the company’s external auditors continue to evaluate and audit the company’s current positions.
“We are disappointed in our inability to meet the May 10 deadline for regaining compliance with Nasdaq listing requirements,” says Glenn Lurie, President and CEO, Synchronoss. “However, we have made tremendous progress and expect that the audit will be completed no later than June 30, 2018. I also want to thank Ernst & Young for the efforts it is making toward completing the task at hand.”
“Our underlying business is solid and sound,” added Lurie. “We have a strong financial profile with ample liquidity. At the end of the first quarter we had approximately $300 million in cash. Further, as evidenced by our recent announcement that we have entered into an agreement to acquire honeybee Digital Solutions, we are aggressively executing our strategy of putting in place the right people, product portfolio and customer base for long-term profitable growth. This acquisition materially enhances our digital platform and illustrates our commitment to investment in supporting customers in a Digital First world. Progress against our strategy is also evidenced through our Verizon renewal, involvement in AT&T’s Smart Cities Alliance and our partnership with Sprint’s B2B division. We believe we are strategically well-positioned, and look forward to regaining compliance with our SEC reporting obligations so we can focus our efforts on executing our growth strategy.”
