Registration declared effective by SEC; Uplist and SEC reporting anticipated to improve liquidity and expand potential audience of shareholders
TEMPE, Ariz. — VirTra, Inc. (OTCQX: VTSI / VTSID), (“VirTra”), a global provider of training simulators for the law enforcement, military, educational and commercial markets, today announced that its common stock is expected to begin trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market, under the ticker “VTSID”, on March 29, 2018. In connection with the move to Nasdaq, VirTra has registered its common shares with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and as such, VirTra will be subject to all the reporting obligations of a public reporting company going forward. On or about April 2, 2018, it is expected that the “D” will be dropped from VirTra’s ticker symbol with the company then trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the ticker “VTSI”.
“This is an important milestone in the progression of our company towards our vision of improving and saving lives through the effective use of technology,” commented Bob Ferris, Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of VirTra. “We are very pleased to move to the Nasdaq Capital Market, a transition which we expect will meaningfully expand our audience of potential investors and improve access to growth capital, ultimately creating enhanced growth opportunities and liquidity for our loyal shareholders. I deeply appreciate all the efforts of the employees, customers, shareholders and vendors who have supported VirTra over the years and enabled us to reach this accomplishment.”
VirTra applied to the Nasdaq on October 10, 2017, contingent upon meeting Nasdaq’s initial listing standards and the qualification by the SEC of its planned Regulation A+ offering of common stock pursuant to an Offering Statement filed with the SEC on September 11, 2017. We have registered our common stock under the Exchange Act using Form 8-A12(b).
“We decided to register our company with the SEC and list on Nasdaq Capital Market before concluding our Regulation A+ Offering and therefore did not raise any funds during the offering,” Mr. Ferris added. “By filing our periodic results with the SEC, we will improve transparency for our shareholders, and this represents another important consideration for the investors we hope to attract.”
