Yulong Eco-Materials Reports Corporate Name Change To 'Millennium Fine Art'

UPDATE: Yulong Eco-Materials Has 7 Days, Or Until Mon., Nov. 26, 2018 To Request A Stay Of Suspension

The Company does not comply with Nasdaq&rsquo;s filing requirements for continued inclusion set forth in Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) (the &ldquo;Rule&rdquo;) because it has not filed its Form 20-F for the period ended June 30, 2018. Accordingly, this matter serves as an additional basis for delisting the Company&rsquo;s securities from The Nasdaq Stock Market. Under our rules, a Company that receives a delist determination for delinquency, can request an appeal to a Hearings Panel, pursuant to the procedures set forth in the Nasdaq Listing Rule 5800 Series. A request for a hearing regarding a delinquent filing will stay the suspension of the Company&rsquo;s securities only for a period of 15 days from the date of the request. In that regard, since the Company is already before a Hearings Panel for its failure to comply with Listing Rule 5110(a), the Company will have seven days, or until November 26, 2018 to request a stay of the suspension, pending a Hearings Panel decision. The request should include an explanation of why an extended stay is appropriate. A Panel will review the request for an extended stay and notify the Company of its conclusion as soon as is practicable but in any event no later than 15 calendar days following the deadline to request a further stay. The Company intends to promptly comply with this Nasdaq directive and has engaged a new auditor, G.C. &amp; Associates CPA, PLLC on November 20, 2018. &ldquo;We will complete the audit and file our required 20F as soon as possible to regain Nasdaq compliance&rdquo;, said CEO, Hoi Ming Chan.
