China Marine Food Group Limited Provides Update on Previously Announced Voluntary Delisting From NYSE MKT

SHISHI, China, Nov. 12, 2013 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- China Marine Food Group Limited (NYSE MKT: CMFO) ("China Marine" or the "Company"), a manufacturer of Mingxiang® seafood-based snack foods, Hi-Power® marine algae-based beverages and a distributor of frozen marine catch, today announced that, in connection with its previously announced voluntary delisting from the NYSE MKT, it expects its common stock to begin trading under the ticker symbol CMFO on the OTC Pink Marketplace, operated by the OTC Markets Group, commencing Wednesday, November 13, 2013. As of that date, investors and other interested parties will be able to view the stock quotes for CMFO at www.otcmarkets.com/stock/CMFO/quote. Although the Company expects to be quoted on the OTC Pink Marketplace, the Company can provide no assurance that any trading market for the Company's securities will exist on the OTC Pink Marketplace. The last day of trading of the Company's common stock on the NYSE MKT will be November 12, 2013.

The Company filed a Form 15 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on November 12, 2013. The Form 15 was filed in order to terminate the registration of the common stock under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act") and the Company expects the deregistration to become effective 90 days after the filing if there are no objections from the SEC. The Company's SEC reporting obligations under Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act, including its obligations to file annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and current reports on Form 8-K, will be immediately suspended upon filing of the Form 15 unless the SEC denies the effectiveness of the Form 15, in which case the Company would be required to file all such reports within 60 days of such denial.  

The Company presently intends to make available quarterly and annual financial results on our internet website at http://www.china-marine.cn on the "Investor Relations" page.
