LOS ANGELES, CA / ACCESSWIRE /OCTOBER 23, 2024 /  -- Nexscient, Inc. (OTCQB: NXNT), an emerging developer of predictive analytics and intelligent enterprise applications, announced today that its shares of common stock have been approved for quotation and trading on the OTCQB Venture Marketplace (OTCQB) under the symbol ‘NXNT’, effective immediately.

OTCQB is the premier marketplace for entrepreneurial and development-stage U.S. and international companies that are committed to providing a high-quality trading and information experience for their investors. To be eligible, companies must be current in their financial reporting, pass a minimum bid price test, and undergo an annual company verification and management certification process. The OTCQB quality standards provide a strong baseline of transparency, technology, and regulation to improve the information and trading experience for investors.

 

Fred E. Tannous, President & CEO of Nexscient, stated “We’re excited to have Nexscient’s stock quoted on OTCQB, which will provide our shareholders with transparency and liquidity as we continue to grow our company.” Tannous continued, “Furthermore, this milestone represents a pivotal moment in our journey and opens up new avenues for growth and visibility in the financial markets. Trading on the OTCQB will not only enhance our profile among current shareholders, but also provides the necessary platform to create greater awareness and attract potential investors to Nexscient as we endeavor to build a broader base of support.”

 

The Company has also been approved and is now eligible for electronic clearing and settlement through the Depository Trust Company ("DTC"). DTC is a subsidiary of the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation and manages the electronic clearing and settlement of publicly traded companies. Securities that are eligible to be electronically cleared and settled through the DTC are considered "DTC eligible." This electronic method of clearing securities speeds up the receipt of stock and cash, and thus accelerates the settlement process for investors.

Factors that may affect our results, performance, circumstances or achievements include, but are not limited to the following: (i) market acceptance of our existing and new products, including those that utilize our technology or offer predictive maintenance and condition-based monitoring applications, (ii) lengthy product delays in key markets, (iii) an inability to secure regulatory approvals for the sale of our products, (iv) intense competition in the industrial and related industries from much larger, multinational companies, (v) product liability claims, product malfunctions and the functionality of our solutions under all environmental conditions, (vi) our limited manufacturing capabilities and reliance on third-parties for assistance, (vii) an inability to establish sales, marketing and distribution capabilities to commercialize our products, (viii) an inability to attract and retain qualified personnel, (ix) our efforts obtain and maintain intellectual property protection covering our products, which may not be successful, (x) our reliance on single suppliers for certain product components, including vibration and temperature sensor technology products, (xi) the fact that we will need to raise additional capital to meet our business requirements in the future and that such capital raising may be costly, dilutive or difficult to obtain, and (xii) the impact of pandemics, such as COVID-19 (coronavirus).
