BEIJING, July 28, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Fuwei Films (Holdings) Co., Ltd. (Nasdaq: FFHL) ("Fuwei Films" or the "Company"), a manufacturer and distributor of high-quality BOPET plastic films in China, today announced that the Company received a letter from the Nasdaq Stock Market ("Nasdaq") on July 23, 2015 notifying the Company that it has regained compliance with the $1.00 per share minimum closing bid price requirement for continued listing on the NASDAQ Capital Market, pursuant to the NASDAQ Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the "Bid Price Rule").

As previously reported, on December 8, 2014, NASDAQ notified the Company that its ordinary shares failed to maintain a minimum bid price of $1.00 over the previous thirty consecutive business days as required by the Listing Rules of The Nasdaq Stock Market. Additionally, on June 9, 2015, Nasdaq notified the Company that while the Company had not regained compliance with the Bid Price Rule, it was eligible for an additional 180-day grace period, until December 7, 2015, to regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule.

Since then, NASDAQ has determined that for the last ten consecutive business days, from July 9, to July 22, 2015, the closing bid price of the Company's ordinary shares has been at $1.00 per share or greater. Accordingly, the Company has regained compliance with the Bid Price Rule and this matter is now closed.
