D. Medical Announces Voluntary SEC Deregistration
2013年3月21日 - 3:13AM
D. Medical Industries Ltd. (OTCBB:DMEDF) (TASE:DMED) ("
D.
Medical" or the "
Company"), announced
today that its Board of Directors approved the filing of a Form 15F
with the Securities and Exchange Commission
("
SEC") to voluntarily deregister its ordinary
shares under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the
"
Exchange Act"). The Company intends to file the
Form 15F on or about March 29, 2013. The Company's reporting
obligations under the Exchange Act will be suspended immediately
upon the filing of Form 15F and will terminate 90 days thereafter
if there are no objections from the SEC. The Company
reserves the right to delay or withdraw the filing for any reason
prior to their effectiveness.
Following the deregistration, the Company's ordinary shares may
continue to be quoted on the OTC Markets Group Inc. electronic
quotation service (the "Pink Sheets") if market makers commit to
make a market in the Company's shares. However, the
Company has not arranged for quotation on the Pink Sheets or
listing or quotation on any other exchange or quotation medium
within the U.S. Thus, the Company can provide no
assurance that trading in its ordinary shares will be quoted on the
Pink Sheets or otherwise. The Company's ordinary shares
will continue to trade on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange Ltd.
(TASE:DMED).
In deciding to voluntarily deregister its ordinary shares, the
Company's Board of Directors considered several factors, including
the following:
- low U.S. trading volume;
- high public company costs in the U.S., including those
associated with preparation and filing of the Company's periodic
reports with the SEC;
- significant management time spent on U.S. regulatory
compliance; and
- the potential impact of deregistration on Company shareholders
resident in the U.S.
