(TSXV: BAU) (FSE: 5WP0) (OTCQB: BAUFF) ("Blue Star" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that, effective November 16, 2021, the Company's common shares (the "Shares") have been approved to commence trading on the OTCQB® Venture market ("OTCQB") under the symbol, BAUFF. The Company's Shares will continue to trade on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol, BAU. The Company has chosen to trade on this US marketplace to provide current and future US-based investors with greater access, ease of trading, home country disclosure, current financial disclosures and Real-Time Level 2 quotes on www.otcmarkets.com.
"Listing on the OTCQB® venture exchange marketplace is an important milestone for the Company," said Grant Ewing, CEO of the Company. "Qualifying for OTCQB® is a natural step for the Company towards broadening exposure of Blue Star's activities in the U.S. It also demonstrates our commitment to increasing the investor base while providing our current and future U.S. investors convenient access to the same ease of trading, timely news and information enjoyed by investors in Canada."
The Company also reports that it is in the process of completing its application for DTC eligibility through the Depository Trust Company "(DTC") for electronic settlement and transfer of its Shares in the United States. DTC is a subsidiary of the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation, a U.S. company that manages the electronic clearing and settlement of publicly traded companies.
The OTCQB® is a leading market for early stage and developing U.S. and international companies operated by the OTC Markets Group Inc. To be eligible for quotation on the OTCQB®, companies must be current in their reporting and undergo an annual verification and management certification process. Companies must also meet a minimum bid price test and other financial conditions. Recognized by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission as an established public market, the OTCQB® market will provide investors who cannot access trading on the TSX Venture Exchange with an alternative access to Blue Star's Shares though regulated U.S. broker-dealers.
