On October 2, 2017, ITUS Corporation (the “Company”) received formal notice from The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) indicating that the Company has regained compliance with Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) of the Nasdaq Stock Market for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market. Accordingly, the Nasdaq compliance matter has been closed.

On October 3, 2017, the Company issued a press release announcing that it had regained compliance with the continued listing standards of Nasdaq. A copy of the Company’s press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
