Q: What are the details regarding the 1 for 25 reverse
stock split?
A: FONAR effected a reverse stock split at a ratio of 1:25 (one new share
for every 25 shares) of its outstanding Common Stock and all other classes
of its outstanding stock, effective as of April 17, 2007. The reason the
Company implemented the reverse stock split was to retain its listing
on NASDAQ. At a hearing held before the NASDAQ Listing Qualifications
Panel (“Panel”) on February 15, 2007, FONAR´s request
for continued listing on The NASDAQ Stock Market was granted, subject
to the condition that on or before May 1, 2007, the Company must have
evidenced a closing bid price of $1.00 or more for a minimum of ten consecutive
trading days. The Panel´s decision was based on its determination
that the reverse stock split to be presented at the Annual Meeting on
April 16, 2007, when implemented, would be likely to cure the bid price
deficiency and allow the Company to maintain compliance for the longer
term. Following the reverse stock split, the NASDAQ Listing Qualifications
Panel found the Company to be in full compliance with its listing requirements,
including its share price, and the post-split price performance of FONAR
shares.
