IRVING, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
(NYSE: FLR) today announced that it received a notice from the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) indicating that the Company is not in compliance with Section 802.01E of the NYSE Listed Company Manual as a result of its failure to timely file its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 (the “2019 Form 10-K”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The notice has no immediate effect on the listing of the Company’s stock on the NYSE.
The NYSE informed the Company that, under NYSE rules, the Company will have six months from March 18, 2020 to file the 2019 Form 10-K with the SEC. The Company can regain compliance with the NYSE listing standards at any time prior to that date by filing its 2019 Form 10-K. If the Company fails to file the 2019 Form 10-K before the NYSE’s compliance deadline, the NYSE may grant, at its sole discretion, an extension of up to six additional months for the Company to regain compliance, depending on the specific circumstances. The notice from the NYSE also notes that the NYSE may nevertheless commence delisting proceedings at any time if it deems that the circumstances warrant.
As the Company reported in its Form 12b-25 filed with the SEC on March 3, 2020, the Company is reviewing its prior period reporting and related controls, as well as completing its preparation of the 2019 financial statements. A special committee of the Board of Directors is independently conducting the review with the assistance of external advisors. The committee has not reached any conclusions because the review is ongoing. Consequently, the Company is not in a position to file the 2019 Form 10-K. The Company continues to work expeditiously to conclude the review and will file the 2019 Form 10-K as soon as practicable.
