DALLAS, July 20, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- JRjr33, Inc., doing business as JRJR Networks [NYSE MKT: JRJR] today announced that on July 14, 2017, it received a letter from the NYSE notifying it that the Company was not in compliance with Sections 134 and 1101 of the NYSE MKT Company Guide as a result of its failure to timely file its Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2017 with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The NYSE has reviewed the Company's May 18, 2017 plan advising of actions it has taken or will take to regain compliance with the continued listing standards and determined to accept the plan and grant a plan period extension through October 18, 2017.  The Company intends to file the Form 10-Q as soon as reasonably practicable after completion of the audit.
