Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing
On July 22, 2019, Halcón Resources Corporation (the “Company”) was notified by the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) that due to “abnormally low” trading price levels, pursuant to Section 802.01D of the NYSE Listed Company Manual, the NYSE has determined to commence delisting proceedings to delist its common stock and warrants exercisable for common stock. Trading in the Company’s securities was suspended on July 22, 2019.
On July 23, 2019, the common stock and warrants of the Company commenced trading on the OTC Pink marketplace under the symbols “HKRS” and “HKRSW,” respectively. The OTC Pink is a significantly more limited market than the NYSE, and quotation on the OTC Pink may result in a less liquid market available for existing and potential stockholders to trade the common stock and warrants and could further depress the trading price of the common stock. The Company can provide no assurance that its common stock or warrants will continue to trade on this market, whether broker-dealers will continue to provide public quotes of the Company’s common stock and warrants on this market, whether the trading volume of the Company’s common stock and warrants will be sufficient to provide for an efficient trading market or whether quotes for the Company’s common stock and warrants may be blocked by OTC Markets Group in the future.
Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure
On July 23, 2019, the Company issued a press release with respect to the NYSE’s suspension of trading and commencement of delisting procedures. The full text of the press release is furnished with this Report as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
