To put those figures in context, the company’s stock was trading at $2.08 less than a week ago before DragonWave announced that its gear would be used in Sprint’s network densification efforts.
Separately, the company said late on Friday that it had received a letter from the NASDAQ warning the firm that it no longer met minimum listing requirements, specifically maintaining at least $2.5 million in shareholders’ equity.
The company reported shareholders’ equity of $1,662,000 for the period ended Aug. 31, 2016.
DragonWave said it intends to regain compliance and provide the NASDAQ with a plan ahead of the stock exchange’s Dec. 1 deadline.
It added that the warning has no immediate impact on the listing of the company’s common shares.
