Item 3.01. Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
Floor & Decor Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) deeply regrets to disclose that Michael Fung, a member of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”), passed away on February 10, 2021. The Company is deeply saddened by Mr. Fung’s untimely passing and extends its sincere condolences to Mr. Fung’s family. Mr. Fung joined the Company’s Board as an independent director in April 2017 and served as the chairperson of the Board’s Audit Committee (the “Audit Committee”) at the time of his passing.
Following Mr. Fung’s death, the Board has been reduced to ten members, eight of whom are independent directors. The Audit Committee has been reduced to two members, both of whom are independent directors. As a result, the Company is no longer compliant with Section 303A.07(a) of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) Listed Company Manual (the “Listed Company Manual”), which requires that the audit committee of an NYSE-listed company consist of at least three members, each of whom is an independent director.
The Company notified the NYSE of Mr. Fung’s passing and the resulting non-compliance with the Listed Company Manual on February 11, 2021. Since the non-compliance resulted from the death of a director, the NYSE has advised the Company that it does not currently plan to publicly disseminate a below compliance indicator or include the Company on the NYSE’s list of noncompliant issuers. The Company expects to appoint an additional member to the Audit Committee that meets the independence requirements of Section 10A-3 of, and Rule 10A-3 under, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Section 303A.02 of the Listed Company Manual shortly. Upon appointing such new member of the Audit Committee, the Company will regain compliance with the applicable NYSE listing standard.
