Invictus Withdraws Plans for NASDAQ Listing and
Related
ShareConsolidation
Vancouver, BC, Canada -- May 15, 2019 --
InvestorsHub NewsWire -- INVICTUS MD STRATEGIES CORP. (“Invictus”
or the “Company”) (TSXV: GENE; OTCQX: IVITF; FRA:
8IS2) announced today that the Company is withdrawing
plans to list the Company’s common shares (the “Shares”) on NASDAQ
Stock Market LLC (“NASDAQ”), as well as plans for the share
consolidation that would have been required to meet NASDAQ’s
minimum share price listing threshold. Plans for the NASDAQ listing
and a share consolidation were originally announced in press
releases dated January 17, 2019 and January 21,
2019.
“The
intended timing of a NASDAQ uplist was premature and underway prior
to my assumption of responsibilities,” said George E. Kveton, CEO
of Invictus. “At present, the Company is fully devoted to bringing
its purpose-built indoor cultivation facilities into production
and getting the Company’s products into the hands of our adult
recreational and medical consumers across key
provinces.”
The
Board of Directors of the Company anticipates that it will revisit
the merits of a NASDAQ listing in the future.
The Company’s Shares will continue to trade on the TSXV under the
ticker symbol “GENE”, on the OTCQB® Venture Market
in the United States under the symbol “IVITF” and on the Frankfurt
Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol “8IS2”.
