(NYSE Amex: WEX) (“Winland”) announced that on April 11, 2012 it received notice from the NYSE Amex staff indicating that Winland is below certain of the NYSE Amex LLC’s (the “Exchange”) continued listing standards due to: stockholders’ equity of less than $4,000,000 and losses from continuing operations and/or net losses in three of its four most recent fiscal years, as set forth in Section 1003(a)(ii) of the Exchange’s Company Guide; and stockholders’ equity of less than $6,000,000 and losses from continuing operations and/or net losses in its five most recent fiscal years ended December 31, 2011, as set forth in Section 1003(a)(iii) of the Exchange’s Company Guide.
