PR Newswire (US)
NASDAQ: DECT TSX: DTL MONTREAL, Feb. 28 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ --
Dectron Internationale, Inc. (TSX: DTL / NASDAQ: DECT), a leader in
the heating, ventilation and air conditioning, indoor air security
and water generation markets, announced today that it will
voluntarily delist its Common Stock from the NASDAQ Stock Exchange
("NASDAQ") with trading in the stock to be terminated as of the
close of trading on March 14, 2007. The Company's decision to
delist from NASDAQ is based on the increasingly high cost of
maintaining dual listings on NASDAQ and the Toronto Stock Exchange
stock markets as well as the high costs related to NASDAQ and SEC
regulatory compliance. Dectron will maintain its listing on the
Toronto Stock Exchange and will continue to provide investors with
timely information regarding significant business and financial
developments. The company also announced that effective immediately
all future disclosure will be under Canadian GAAP and in shown in
Canadian dollars. Dectron Internationale's Chairman of the Board,
Mr. Ness Lakdawala said: "while a NASDAQ listing made a lot of
sense in 1998 when we took the company public, we now recognize
that circumstances have changed in the past few years, and today
the ongoing costs of SEC corporate compliance as well as
maintaining two listings in two countries far outweigh any
benefits." Mr. Lakdawala added, "It is important to emphasize that
we are still a public company through our listing on the Toronto
Stock Exchange (TSX - DTL) and existing stockholders will still be
able to buy or sell our shares through that exchange. Our decision
does not reflect any change in Dectron's commitment to its
operations and development in the US." This release contains
