(OTC:CVSI), preeminent supplier and manufacturer of hemp-derived phytocannabinoids including cannabidiol (CBD) oil and developer of specialty pharmaceutical therapeutics, announced that it has submitted its application to list the Company’s common stock in the U.S. on the Nasdaq Capital Market.
“We believe up-listing from the OTC Market to the Nasdaq Capital Market will increase corporate visibility, improve liquidity, and broaden awareness in the financial markets,” stated Joseph Dowling, Chief Executive Officer of CV Sciences. “An up-list will open the investment opportunity to a larger pool of investors and help create greater shareholder value. We have made significant progress in strengthening our financial performance and liquidity, positioning the Company for future growth and profitability. A listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market is a natural progression for the Company and our shareholders.”
Acceptance for listing the Company’s shares is subject to approval based on several factors including satisfaction of minimum listing requirements for the Nasdaq Capital Market.
