WARREN, N.J., Nov. 29, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Timber Pharmaceuticals, Inc. ("Timber" or the "Company") (NYSE American: TMBR), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the development and commercialization of treatments for rare and orphan dermatologic diseases, today announced that the staff of NYSE Regulation (the “NYSE Regulation”) has determined to immediately suspend trading in the Company’s common stock from NYSE American, LLC (the “NYSE American”).
As previously disclosed, the NYSE Regulation notified Timber on November 21, 2023 that, as a result of the voluntary bankruptcy petitions filed under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code by the Company and certain of its subsidiaries on November 17, 2023, it would commence delisting proceedings of Timber’s common stock from the NYSE American pursuant to Section 1003(c)(iii) of the NYSE American Company Guide. The Company did not appeal the determination. As a result, trading of the Company’s common stock was suspended at the opening of business on November 29, 2023.
Also on November 29, 2023, a Form 25-NSE was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), which will remove the Company’s securities from listing and registration on the NYSE American. Once the delisting from the NYSE American takes effect, the Company’s common stock is expected to begin trading on the over-the counter (“OTC”) market. On the OTC market, shares of the Company’s common stock, which previously traded on the NYSE American under the symbol “TMBR”, are expected to trade under the symbol “TMBRQ”.
