CDC Software Announces Receipt Of NASDAQ Delisting Notice; Intends To Request A Hearing

CDC Software Corporation (NASDAQ: CDCS), a global enterprise software provider of on-premise and cloud deployments, today announced that it has received a letter dated November 17, 2011 from The NASDAQ Stock Market, Inc. (“NASDAQ”), stating that NASDAQ staff members (the “Staff”), exercising their discretionary authority, have determined to delist the Company’s securities based on public interest concerns under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5101 and the Company’s failure to timely file its Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2010, as required by Listing Rule 5250(c). Trading in the Company’s securities has been halted by NASDAQ since October 5, 2011.

Pursuant to the NASDAQ letter, the Company has until November 25, 2011 to request a hearing before a NASDAQ Listing Qualifications Panel (the “Panel”). Accordingly, the Company intends to timely request a hearing at which it will address the concerns raised by the Staff and present its plan for regaining compliance with all applicable requirements for continued listing. However, there can be no assurance that the Panel will grant the Company’s request for continued listing. In connection with the hearing request, the Company will also request that the Staff’s delisting determination be stayed at least until the Panel issues its decision following the hearing. In the event that NASDAQ determines not to grant the stay, it is expected that the current trading halt would be converted to a trading suspension on or about December 12, 2011. In such an event, the Company’s securities would become eligible for trading in the over-the-counter market at that time. The Company will make a further announcement regarding its trading status following the receipt of NASDAQ’s determination on the stay request, which is expected before December 12, 2011. The Company expects that its hearing will be scheduled to occur early next year.
