Verb Technology Company Inc (VERB)

[BaGr]

A quiet period is an interval in time when corporate insiders need to limit their interaction with the public due to the insiders’ knowledge of material information. Typically, this applies to a period when management has knowledge regarding company news that has not been announced to the public. This can be broken down further into two general categories:

IPOs and Financings. These quiet periods were established and are regulated by the SEC to prohibit analysts who are associated with the deal ( i.e. who work for the investment bankers on the deal) from writing research reports that could influence the stock price during a defined period of time.
Quarterly Earnings and Material News. The period between the end of a financial quarter and the day that quarterly results are released to the public, as well as a period before material news about the company is going to be disclosed.
