In addition to the graduation to OTCQB, the Company is pleased to announce that the Depository Trust Company (" DTC ") has made Cizzle Brands' common shares eligible for electronic deposit at DTC. DTC eligibility streamlines the trading process, making it more efficient for investors and brokers. As a subsidiary of the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC), DTC handles electronic clearing and settlement for publicly traded companies. With DTC eligibility, the Company's shares can now be traded across a wider network of brokerage firms, accelerating the settlement process and improving access for a broader range of investors.
The graduation to the OTCQB and DTC eligibility occurred only eight weeks after Cizzle Brands' common shares began trading on the Cboe Canada Inc. stock exchange (" Cboe Canada ") in Canada under the ticker symbol CZZL, and just three weeks after the Company obtained its first European listing on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol 8YF.
The Company's public listing on Cboe Canada has generated a significant amount of media and investor interest, with Cizzle Brands' Founder, Chairman and CEO, John Celenza, being interviewed on BNN Bloomberg , Trader TV , and CEO.ca , amongst others.
With respect to the graduation to OTCQB and DTC eligibility, Mr. Celenza commented "These are very exciting times for Cizzle Brands, as we continue to gain momentum both in the capital markets, and in the consumer packaged goods space. We have worked hard to generate measurable value for our shareholders, hitting key milestones and driving growth that can be leveraged to further scale our business. Graduating to a higher tier on the OTC Markets and DTC eligibility are important steps for reaching American investors, as we look forward to providing more investors around the world with the opportunity to take part in elevating the game in health and wellness by investing in Cizzle Brands."
Cizzle Brands' Head of Corporate Development Setti Coscarella commented, "In less than two months since our market debut, Cizzle Brands' common shares are now traded in three different countries, and we are pleased to have had our U.S. ticker CZZLF graduated to the OTCQB market along with DTC eligibility. This development is meaningful because our investor base is now positioned to benefit from improved liquidity, and reduced barriers for U.S. investors to buy Cizzle Brands' common shares through their preferred broker-dealer. The year of 2025 continues to bring about many great achievements for Cizzle Brands, and we are truly just getting started."
