EAST WINDSOR, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--NexMed, Inc. (Nasdaq: NEXM), a specialty CRO and a developer of products based on the NexACT technology, today announced that the NASDAQ Listing Qualifications Panel (the “Panel”) has determined that NexMed has evidenced compliance with the market value of listed securities requirement for continued listing on The NASDAQ Capital Market by evidencing a market capitalization in excess of $35 million for a minimum of ten consecutive trading days, in lieu of the $2.5 million in stockholder’s equity as required by the Panel’s decision dated December 17, 2009. In its recent determination, the Panel also granted NexMed’s request for an extension through May 24, 2010 to solicit proxies and hold its 2009/2010 Annual Meeting and thereby evidence compliance with NASDAQ’s proxy solicitation and annual meeting requirements. In addition, the Panel has granted the Company’s request for an extension through July 15, 2010 to evidence compliance with NASDAQ’s minimum bid price requirement of $1.00 per share. On January 26, 2010, NexMed was notified by the NASDAQ Listing Qualifications Staff that the Company no longer satisfied the minimum bid price requirement. The Company was provided with the opportunity to present its plan to regain compliance with that requirement for the Panel’s review and did so on January 27, 2010.
