LOS ANGELES, June 25, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- GTX Corp (OTCBB: GTXO) (“the Company”), a pioneer in the field of wearable GPS human and asset tracking systems and wandering assistive technology, announced today it has filed for a reverse split as part of a strategic plan to up-list to the OTCQB Venture Exchange as well as realize a more attractive share price. GTXO is in final preparations to enact a reverse stock split that will bring the Company’s share price above $0.10, making GTXO eligible to up-list from the OTC Pink Marketplace to the OTCQB.
Patrick Bertagna, GTX Corp CEO, commented, “This is a long-term plan the Company’s board and management have been strategically working on over the past several months in order to make the public side of the business more reflective of the positive milestones and forward progress achieved in recent months, along with positioning the Company for the future. The Company has experienced an overall solid first quarter, with double-digit increases or decreases in all the major metrics - revenues were up, subscribers were up, margins and profits were up, while cost of operations, professional services, G&A and net losses decreased. GTX Corp also successfully completed the delivery of its first large-scale military contract. In addition to these achievements, the Company has also secured a strategic financial partner that has begun providing funding and will continue to provide the growth capital needed throughout 2018 and 2019 in order to support long-term success.”
As part of this restructure plan, GTX Corp engaged Weinberg & Company, a leading, international, full-service, multi-office CPA firm serving clients throughout the United States and the Pacific Rim, and the Company has also engaged NetworkNewsWire for its corporate communications.
As reported on its Form 8-K, the Company held a special meeting of its board of directors on June 14, 2018, at which meeting the board of directors, by an affirmative vote of the majority of the Company’s outstanding shares of capital stock, approved the amendment to the Company’s restated certificate of incorporation to effect the reverse stock split at a ratio of one-for-seventy-five shares (1:75).
The trading symbol for the common stock will remain “GTXO.” The new CUSIP number for the common stock following the reverse stock split will be 362408 205.
The Company is committed to transparency and plans to make several more announcements over the coming weeks outlining the development of this comprehensive strategic plan.
