MedeFile Comments on Shift of Stock Quotation Coverage From OTCBB to OTCQB
BOCA RATON, Fla., Feb. 28, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- MedeFile International, Inc. (OTCQB: MDFI), a leader in portable patient-centric electronic medical record management solutions, today commented on the shift in the Company's stock quotation coverage which recently transitioned from the OTCBB to the OTCQB under the symbol "MDFI." The shift in coverage to the OTCQB was caused by an unexpected migration of the Company's market makers away from the OTCBB, and does not affect, nor is it a reflection upon, MedeFile's business, operations or growth prospects.
The OTCQB is one of three tiers established by OTC Markets Group, Inc., which operates one of the world's largest electronic interdealer quotation systems for broker-dealers to trade securities not listed on a national exchange. The OTCQB designation is meant to identify companies that are reporting with the SEC or a U.S. banking regulator, making it easy for investors to identify companies that are current in their reporting obligations.
Kevin Hauser, Chief Executive Officer of MedeFile, stated, "We have been told by several of our market makers that there is no technical difference between an OTCBB trading security and a fully reporting issuer trading on the OTCQB. Therefore, until such time as MedeFile meets the criteria to qualify for listing on the Nasdaq or other national securities exchange, our common stock will be quoted on the OTCQB, which can be viewed at www.otcmarkets.com."
