What Does A Blood Test Showing 'positive <1.00' For Herpes Simplex Mean?

Good evening. I had a blood test performed a few weeks ago for std's. I received my results back and I am confused about the herpes simplex portion. Everything I read says it is a scale and mine says positive <1.00. Could you tell me the specifics of the results? Thank you.
