16 Avril 2019 - 1:59PM
MediPharm Labs Corp. (TSXV: LABS) (OTCQB: MEDIF) (FSE: MLZ)
(“MediPharm Labs” or the “Company”) a global leader in specialized,
research-driven cannabis extraction, distillation, purification and
cannabinoid isolation, is pleased to announce it has received
Depository Trust Company (DTC) eligibility for its common shares in
the United States. “DTC eligibility” simplifies the process of
trading and transferring the Company’s common shares between
brokerages in the U.S.
“We are pleased that MediPharm Labs common
shares are now considered to be “DTC Eligible”, to facilitate the
trading of our common shares in the U.S. markets”, said Patrick
McCutcheon, Chief Executive Officer, MediPharm Labs. “We will
continue to pursue opportunities that enhance our value, liquidity
and strengthen our shareholder base while improving accessibility
for all U.S. investors and institutions, as well as global
investors, to participate in the future growth of MediPharm
Labs”.
DTC is a subsidiary of the Depository Trust
& Clearing Corporation, a U.S. company that facilitates
electronic trading in the United States. Securities that are
considered “DTC eligible”, may be electronically cleared and
settled through DTC. MediPharm Labs common shares are now eligible
to be distributed, settled and serviced through DTC's automated
processes, providing greater efficiency and reduced costs as a
result of the electronic method of clearing securities and
accelerated settlement processes. Securities that are DTC eligible
often experience increased trading volumes. In addition, DTC
eligibility addresses the issue that many U.S. firms have that
prohibit trading in shares that are not DTC eligible.
