American Addiction Centers Announces NYSE Acceptance of Continued Listing Plan

BRENTWOOD, Tenn., July 26, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- AAC Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: AAC) today announced that the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) has approved the Company’s plan to improve its market capitalization and share price.

Previously, the NYSE notified the Company that it had fallen below the Exchange’s requirement of an average market capitalization of $50 million or more over a consecutive 30 trading-day period or most recently reported stockholders’ equity of the Company of $50 million or more. The NYSE’s acceptance of AAC’s plan makes the Company eligible for an 18-month cure period, ending November 17, 2020, during which the Company must meet the Exchange’s market capitalization/stockholder’s equity requirement. Separately, by January 3, 2020, AAC must achieve an average share price exceeding more than $1.00 for a 30-day trading period.

Shares of AAC will continue to be listed on the NYSE, subject to the Company’s achievement of the aforementioned standards by the end of the applicable cure periods.
