SILVER
STATE BANCORP ANNOUNCES NOTIFICATION OF DELISTING FROM NASDAQ STOCK
MARKET
Henderson,
NV – September 9, 2008 – Silver State Bancorp (NASDAQ: SSBX) announced today
that, on September 8, 2008, it received a letter from the Nasdaq Stock
Market (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that the Company’s common stock will be
delisted from Nasdaq. The letter stated that the Company no longer
complies with the minimum $10 million in stockholder’s equity requirement for
continued listing on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under Nasdaq Marketplace
Rule 4450(a)(3). In addition, Nasdaq expressed concerns about the
Company’s ability to sustain compliance with other requirements for continued
listing on Nasdaq in light of the previously reported receivership by the
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation of the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary,
Silver State Bank. The Company does not intend to appeal Nasdaq’s
decision to delist the Company’s common stock.
According
to the letter from Nasdaq, trading in the Company’s common stock will be
suspended at the opening of business on September 10, 2008 and Form 25-NSE will
be filed by Nasdaq with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which will
remove the Company’s securities from listing and registration on Nasdaq. In
addition, trading in the Company’s common stock had been halted by Nasdaq
starting on Monday, September 8, 2008 and will remain so up to the suspension
date.
Although
the Company’s securities will not be immediately eligible to trade on the OTC
Bulletin Board or in the “Pink Sheets,” the securities may become eligible if a
market maker makes an application to register the Company’s securities and such
application is cleared.
