NEW YORK, June 15 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- MKTG INC (Nasdaq: CMKG), an alternative marketing and media communications agency, today reported that trading in its Common Stock is expected to move from the Nasdaq Capital Market to the OTC Bulletin Board at the opening of trading on June 25, 2010. Withdrawal from Nasdaq will not affect the Company's continued filing of periodic reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
In connection with the move, the Company today notified the Nasdaq Stock Market of its intent to voluntarily delist its Common Stock from Nasdaq, and will file a Form 25 with the Securities and Exchange Commission to effect the delisting. Currently, the Company is in not in compliance with Nasdaq's rules requiring it to maintain a minimum bid price of $1.00 per share, a Board of Directors that includes a majority of independent directors, and an audit committee of at least three independent directors.
Jim Haughton, Senior Vice President and Controller commented: "The move from Nasdaq to the Bulletin Board offers us the opportunity to reduce costs. Additionally, with the recent decline in our stock price below $1.00 per share, our continued listing on Nasdaq would have required us to effect a reverse stock split to increase the per share price of Common Stock, which in many instances leads to an erosion in stockholder value. In light of these considerations, the Company has determined to take the initiative and move to the Bulletin Board."
The OTC Bulletin Board is a quotation medium for subscribing broker dealers. OTC Bulletin Board securities are traded by a community of market makers that enter quotes and trade reports through a highly sophisticated, closed computer network.
