ELMSFORD, N.Y., July 07, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Party City Holdco Inc. (the “Company” or “PRTY”; NYSE:PRTY) today announced that it received written notification from the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) that it has regained compliance with the NYSE continued listing standards.

Brad Weston, Chief Executive Officer, stated, “We are pleased to have regained compliance with all NYSE listing requirements. We remain focused on our strategic plan, including initiatives underway to support our financial strength and establish Party City as the destination of choice for all things celebration.”

As previously disclosed, on April 9, 2020, the Company received formal notice from the NYSE that it was not in compliance with the NYSE's continued listing standards as a result of the average closing price of the Company's common stock being less than $1.00 per share over a consecutive 30 trading-day period.

The Company regained compliance after its closing share price on June 30, 2020 and its average closing share price for the 30 trading-day period ending June 30, 2020 both exceeded $1.00. Accordingly, the Company has resumed compliance under the NYSE continued listing standards and the “.BC” indicator following the Company’s symbol “PRTY” will be removed by the NYSE.
