  1. AAllow registration by Filing since the issuer is NYSE-listed
  2. BDeny registration by Filing due to lack of continuous SEC reporting✓ Correct answer
  3. CRequire the issuer to register by Coordination instead
  4. DAutomatically approve the registration by Qualification
Explanation

Why BDeny registration by Filing due to lack of continuous SEC reporting

To register by Filing (USA Section 303(a)), the issuer must have timely SEC filings for the past 36 months. Missing an annual report breaks this eligibility, so the Administrator may deny. C and D are not automatic.
