Item 5. Other Events.

 

On February 18, 2004, Dickie Walker Marine, Inc. (the “Company”) received a notification from Nasdaq stating that the Company was not in compliance with Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(2)(B) which requires the Company to have a minimum of $2,500,000 in stockholders’ equity or $35,000,000 market value of listed securities or $500,000 of net income from continuing operations for the most recently completed fiscal year or two of the three most recently completed fiscal years.

 

The Company subsequently notified Nasdaq staff that it was in the process of converting its 7% Subordinated Convertible Promissory Notes (the “Notes”) into common stock in order to satisfy the stockholders’ equity requirement for continued listing. As of March 31, 2004, noteholders, primarily Directors of the Company, had converted their Notes at the original conversion price of $3.60 per share, resulting in an increase in shareholders’ equity of $202,500. In addition, the Company had extended an offer to the remaining noteholders to convert their Notes into common stock at an amended conversion price of $1.69 per share. Such offer was effective as of April 1, 2004 through April 9, 2004. As of the date of this report, the Company had received conversion notices for an additional $450,000 of Notes, resulting in an additional $450,000 increase in shareholders’ equity.

 

Based upon the increase in shareholders’ equity of $652,500 due to the conversion of $652,500 of Notes, the Company’s stockholders’ equity now exceeds the minimum requirement of $2,500,000 in stockholders’ equity for continued listing on the Nasdaq SmallCap market. Therefore, the Company believes as of the date of this report that it has regained compliance with Nasdaq’s stockholders’ equity listing requirements.

 

Nasdaq has also informed the Company that it will continue to monitor the Company’s ongoing compliance with the stockholders’ equity requirement and, if at the time of the filing of the Company’s next periodic report with the Securities and Exchange Commission and Nasdaq, the Company does not evidence continued compliance, its securities may be subject to being delisted from The Nasdaq SmallCap Market.
