Glori Energy Shares Expected to Begin Trading on the OTCQB on September 30
HOUSTON, Sept. 30, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Glori Energy Inc. (OTCQB: GLRI), an energy technology and oil production company focused on enhanced oil recovery using its proprietary AERO® System, today announced that its common stock is expected to begin trading on the OTCQB Venture Market on September 30, 2016 under the Company's current trading symbol "GLRI." As previously announced, Glori's common stock suspended trading on the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC ("Nasdaq") effective on September 29, 2016. Investors will be able to view real-time best bid and ask quotes for "GLRI" at http://www.otcmarkets.com and through most online broker websites.
As previously reported, the Company voluntarily filed Form 25, Notification of Removal from Listing and/or Registration under Section 12(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 on September 20, 2016 to initiate the delisting and deregistration process. Glori's Board of Directors had determined that delisting and deregistration are in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders due to its non-compliance with Nasdaq's continued listing requirements; the likely expenses and uncertainty associated with seeking to regain compliance and raise capital while subject to Nasdaq's Listing Rules and the ongoing listing, legal, administrative and additional accounting costs associated with being a publicly listed company and maintaining such compliance.
Kevin Guilbeau, Glori's Executive Co-Chairman and Interim CEO stated, "Although Glori's Common Stock is moving to the Over-The-Counter Market, we remain committed to positioning the company for future growth and a stronger financial position. We are continuing to execute on our Phoenix initiative to selectively lease acreage in a currently non-producing oil field that we believe has excellent reservoir qualities and contains significant amounts of unrecovered oil. We plan to apply a standard waterflood operation coupled with our AERO technology to unlock these left-behind reserves."
ABOUT GLORI ENERGY INC.
Glori Energy is a Houston-based energy technology and oil production company that deploys its proprietary AERO technology to increase the amount of oil that can be produced from conventional oil fields. Glori owns and operates oil fields onshore U.S. and additionally provides its technology as a service to E&P companies globally. Only one-third of all oil discovered in a typical reservoir is recoverable using conventional technologies; the rest remains trapped in the rock. Glori's proprietary AERO System recovers residual oil by stimulating a reservoir's native microorganisms to sustainably increase the ultimate recovery at a low cost.
