Tauriga Sciences, Inc. Obtains its Audit Work Papers for Fiscal Years 2013 and 2014; Company Targeting the Summer of 2016 to Regain Fully Reporting Status
By obtaining these work papers, the Company’s goal is that by Fiscal Year end March 31, 2016 (“FY 2016”) Form 10-K due date (which is on or before June 30, 2016), it can file all of its delinquent filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The Company is confident that once it regains its fully reporting status, it can petition OTC Markets to up-list its shares to the OTCQB exchange (“OTCQB”); the Company shares currently trade on the OTC Pink Limited Information Tier (“Pink Sheets”). However, it must be mentioned to shareholders that the OTC Markets cannot waiver the minimum 1 cent bid price requirement which stipulates a 30 day trading period during which shares of a public company must close at a bare minimum of 1 cent per share uninterrupted during that period.
Tauriga would be required to either build its Company fundamentals sufficiently that fair market value would exceed 1 cent per share organically or alternatively enact a corporate action known as a reverse split of its common stock (“Reverse”). The Company is focused solely at this time on building its fundamental/intrinsic value and creating shareholders value through execution and strong performance. However, the Company’s Board of Directors has authorized a Reverse as a last resort strategy to regain compliance with the OTC Market’s minimum bid price requirement. The Company views an uplisting as an important milestone, as it would enable the Company to once again seek financial support and investment from a broad array of institutional investors.
The Company is currently in discussions with several potential acquisition targets, all of whom would require Tauriga to regain its status as a fully reporting entity with the SEC. The Company has not ruled out the possibility of entering into a binding agreement with a potential acquisition target; however one critical condition must be met. Tauriga’s Board of Directors has mandated that any such binding agreement must incorporate a closing period clause of “up to 500 calendar days.” This should provide Tauriga with sufficient time to complete the prosecution of its lawsuit against Cowan Gunteski, which was filed on November 4, 2015 in Federal District Court in the Southern District Florida. The Company is confident in its ability to win a substantial monetary award should the case not settle prior to the commencement of such trial.
Tauriga’s CEO Mr. Seth M. Shaw expressed, “The Company is pleased to have finally obtained its audit work papers. Nonetheless the Company will work as quickly as possible to file all of its required delinquent SEC filings and is hopeful for an uplisting on the OTCQB exchange. I wish to make it clear to shareholders that we intend to hold Cowan Gunteski fully responsible for the damages incurred by the Company and its shareholders.”
