As previously reported on February 23, 2016, Ascent Solar Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”), received a notification from The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC (“NASDAQ”) stating that NASDAQ had determined to delist shares of the Company’s common stock from NASDAQ. Since February 25, 2016 the Company’s common stock has been suspended from trading on NASDAQ and has been instead traded on the OTCQB Venture Market, operated by OTC Markets Group Inc.
Following the expiration of all appeals periods, on May 18, 2016, NASDAQ announced they will file a Form 25 with the SEC. The Form 25 would take effect in 10 days and would complete the NASDAQ delisting process. The Form 25 will have no impact on the trading of the Company’s common stock which will continue to trade on the OTCQB Venture Market.
