DENVER, Nov. 03, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — QEP Resources, Inc. (NYSE: QEP) (QEP or the Company) announced that on October 28, 2020, it received written notice from the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) that the average closing price of the Company’s common stock over the prior 30-consecutive trading day period was below $1.00 per share, which is the minimum average share price for continued listing on the NYSE.

QEP has notified the NYSE of its intent to cure the deficiency and return to compliance with the NYSE continued listing requirements within the six-month cure period. During the cure period, QEP’s shares of common stock will continue to trade on the NYSE, subject to compliance with other continued listing requirements.

The NYSE notification does not affect QEP’s ongoing business operations or its Securities and Exchange Commission reporting requirements, nor does it trigger any violation of its debt obligations. QEP is considering all available options to regain compliance with the NYSE’s continued listing standards, including the consummation of a potential reverse stock split.
