LOS ANGELES, May 20, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Daily Journal Corporation (Nasdaq:DJCO) announced today that, due to the delayed filing of its quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2014, the Company received, as expected, a notification letter from The NASDAQ Stock Market stating that the Company is not in compliance with NASDAQ Stock Market Rule 5250(c)(1), which requires the timely filing of all required periodic financial reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). The NASDAQ letter was issued in accordance with standard NASDAQ procedures. The Company previously received notification letters from NASDAQ regarding the Company's non-compliance with Rule 5250(c)(1) following its failure to timely file its Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013 and its failure to timely file its Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2013.
As previously announced, Ernst & Young, LLP, the Company's registered independent public accounting firm, has not yet completed its audit of the Company's financial statements for fiscal 2013 or its audit of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. The Company is awaiting the completion of the audits.
NASDAQ has granted the Company until June 30, 2014 to regain compliance with the NASDAQ rule. The Company currently believes that it will be able to file its late annual report and quarterly reports by that deadline.
