MIDLAND, Mich., Aug. 12, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- HPIL Holding (OTC PINK: HPIL) has filed a Form 15 CERTIFICATION AND NOTICE OF TERMINATION OF REGISTRATION UNDER SECTION 12(g) OF THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934 OR SUSPENSION OF DUTY TO FILE REPORTS UNDER SECTIONS 13 AND 15(d) OF THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934 on 8/12/19.
Upon the filing of the Form 15, HPIL’s obligation to file periodic and current reports with the SEC, including Forms 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K, was immediately suspended. The Company’s duty to file reports with the SEC will be terminated 90 days after the filing of the Form 15. Despite the termination of registration, the Company expects that shareholders will be able to continue to trade the outstanding common shares of HPIL, and the Company intends to maintain a public listing on the OTC Pink Sheets market or other exchange as it may determine appropriate. The Company plans to disclose its financial statements on a quarterly and annual basis through the OTC Markets reporting service as an alternative reporting company. However, the Company cannot guarantee that trading in its common stock will continue on OTC Markets or any other forum.
The annual cost of the various requirements of a fully reporting company can easily exceed $200,000. For an emerging growth company such as HPIL the costs are prohibitive. HPIL’s Board of Directors has decided to instead focus our “time, energy and resources" on continuing to develop the HPIL business model at this time in the life cycle of the company. HPIL intends to file unaudited financial statements with OTC Markets shortly. When appropriate HPIL intends to return to full reporting status.
HPIL Management plans on utilizing the savings during this time to pursue the agenda for advancing the various HPIL subsidiaries. HPIL management is dedicated to utilizing our existing resources to initiate and grow revenues, generate new customers and proactively build the awareness of who we are and what we do. The Board of Directors has approved this action primarily as a cost reduction measure. Suspending and ultimately terminating the Company's SEC reporting obligations will allow it to reduce the substantial legal, accounting, and other expenses associated with reporting compliance and make those savings available for continued operation of the business.

HPIL currently intends to provide quarterly and future earnings releases and other press releases about the Company on the OTC Markets reporting service, its web site, http://www.hpilholding.com/news/news.php , as well as through other distribution methods it may identify.
