Merge Technologies said it was informed by NASDAQ that its common stock listing will be continued. This will be the case at least until the NASDAQ Listing Qualifications Panel completes its review of Merge’s latest request for an additional extension beyond the original July 7 extension. The company has yet to file its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year 2005, all required restatements and its Form 10-Q for the Q1 2006 as NASDAQ requires.

Merge claims that it currently expects to make all of these filings by the end of the third quarter of 2006 and has requested that NASDAQ allow this time via the new extension.
