NEW YORK, Aug 07, 2008 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- ANSW | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- Answers Corporation (NASDAQ: ANSW), creators of the leading answer engine offering Answers.com(R) and WikiAnswers.com(TM), today reported that it received a letter on August 6, 2008 from The NASDAQ Global Market stating that based on the Form 10-Q filed for the period ended June 30, 2008, NASDAQ has determined that the Company is not in compliance with minimum stockholders' equity of $10 million as required under The NASDAQ Global Market Marketplace Rule 4450(a)(3). As of June 30, 2008, the Company's stockholders' equity was $9.582 million. NASDAQ is reviewing the Company's eligibility for continued listing on The NASDAQ Global Market.

To facilitate this review, NASDAQ has requested that the Company submit its plan to achieve and sustain compliance to NASDAQ by August 31, 2008 advising NASDAQ of the action the Company has taken, or will take, that would bring it into compliance with Marketplace Rule 4450(a)(3). If NASDAQ does not accept the Company's plan, NASDAQ may then initiate delisting proceedings from The NASDAQ Global Market at which time the Company may appeal NASDAQ's determination to a Listing Qualifications Panel.

Alternatively, the Company may apply to transfer its securities to The NASDAQ Capital Market. Currently the Company meets the listing requirements for continued listing on The NASDAQ Capital Market. The NASDAQ Capital Market, formerly The NASDAQ SmallCap Market, is a continuous trading market that operates in the same manner as The NASDAQ Global Market. All companies, whose securities are listed on The NASDAQ Capital Market must meet certain financial requirements and adhere to NASDAQ's corporate governance standards. The NASDAQ Capital Market includes the securities of approximately 450 companies.
