LAS VEGAS, April 21, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Alkame Holdings, Inc. (OTC PINK: ALKM), is pleased to announce that it will begin the process for moving off the OTC Pink Sheets and uplisting to the OTCQB. The Company will be hiring an auditing firm to assist with the uplisting.
The Company believes that the move to the OTCQB will provide enhanced investor benefits including higher reporting standards, greater access to analyst coverage and news services, and more comprehensive compliance requirements. The OTCQB is considered by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) as an "established public market" for determining the public market price when registering securities for resale with the SEC. The OTC Pink is not considered as such, and most broker dealers will not trade or recommend OTC Pink stocks. Because the OTCQB dramatically increases transparency, reporting standards, management certification and compliance requirements, most broker dealers trade stocks on the OTCQB. Historically, companies that have made the move up to the OTCQB® tier have experienced increased investor awareness, greater liquidity and visibility of their common stock.
"Uplisting to the OTCQB will assist our company in providing greater shareholder value. It will allow us to achieve greater market visibility along with increased trading liquidity within the investment community. We look forward to showcasing our company to a larger audience of domestic and international investors,” Stated Robert Eakle, Alkame CEO. Eakle continued “Uplisting to OTCQB is the first of several exciting advancements, as we continue to make our way to NASDAQ."
