Pure Bioscience makes its way back to Nasdaq

San Diego Business Journal, April 7, 2008 by Heather Chambers

Pure Regains Nasdaq Status: Pure Bioscience, an El Cajon-based maker of disinfectants, began listing its stock on Nasdaq on April 2 under the symbol PURE.

Nasdaq delisted the company's stock in February 2004, less than a year after it changed its name from Innovative Medical Services to Pure in an effort to refocus its water treatment business on bioscience technologies. Its stock did not comply with minimum bid price requirements of $1 a share.

The stock was trading at $6.18 in mid-day trading April 2. Pure traded on the Over the Counter Bulletin Board between $2 and $8.72 a share during the past year.
