Announces Trading on OTCQB and DTC Eligibility of its Common
Shares
Vancouver, British
Columbia, Canada -- January 19, 2022 -- InvestorsHub NewsWire
-- Graphano Energy
Ltd. (TSXV: GEL, OTCQB: GELEF, FSE: 97G0) (the "Company"
or "Graphano
Energy") is
pleased to announce that its common shares have qualified to trade
on the OTCQB®
Venture Market
("OTCQB")
and will commence trading today under its existing symbol of
"GELEF". The Company upgraded to OTCQB from the
Pink®
Open Market. In addition,
the common shares of the Company will continue to trade on the TSX
Venture Exchange under the symbol "GEL".
The OTCQB is a U.S.
trading platform that is operated by the OTC Markets Group in New
York and is the premier marketplace for early-stage and developing
U.S. and international companies. To be eligible for quotation on
the OTCQB, companies must be current in their reporting and undergo
an annual verification and management certification process.
Companies must also meet a minimum bid price test and other
financial conditions. Recognized by the U.S. Securities and
Exchange Commission as an established public market, the OTCQB
provides investors who cannot access trading on the TSX Venture
Exchange with an alternative access to the Company's shares though
regulated U.S. broker-dealers.
The
Company has chosen to trade on the OTCQB to provide current and
future U.S.-based investors with greater access, ease of trading,
home country disclosure, and current financial disclosures. The
OTCQB quality standards provide a strong baseline of transparency,
as well as the technology and regulation to improve the information
and trading experience for investors. Investors can find Real-Time
quotes and market information for the Company on www.otcmarkets.com.
The Company is also pleased to announce that its common shares are
now eligible for electronic clearing and settlement through the
Depository Trust Company ("DTC")
in the
United States.
DTC eligibility is
expected to simplify the process of trading and enhance liquidity
of the Company's common shares in the U.S. With DTC eligibility,
existing investors benefit from potentially greater liquidity and
execution speeds, whilst opening the door to new investors that may
have been previously restricted from the Company's common
shares.
