OTC PINK

The OTC Pink, which includes the highest-risk, highly speculative securities, is further divided into three tiers: Current Information, Limited Information and No Information, based on the level of disclosure and public information made available by the company either through the SEC or posted on OTC Markets. There are no qualitative standards beyond disclosure for OTC Pink companies, which include companies in all stages of development as well as shell and blank check entities.

Current Information

Companies with Current Information status on OTC Markets include both companies that are subject to and current in their SEC Exchange Act reporting requirements and companies that file current information on OTC Markets in accordance with their Alternative Reporting Standards. The following minimum disclosure is required to maintain Current Information status:

If subject to the Exchange Act reporting requirements, compliance with such reporting requirements will satisfy the financial reporting requirements for Current Information;
If not subject to the Exchange Act reporting requirements, a company must post annual financial statements, including a balance sheet, income statement, statement of cash flows and notes to financial statements, for the previous two fiscal years or from inception if the company is less than two years old, which annual report must be filed within 90 days of fiscal year end;
If financial statements are audited, the auditor report must be posted (audited financial statements are not required);
If the company’s financial statements are not audited, an annual Attorney Letter and Attorney Letter Agreement must be posted within 120 days of fiscal year end;
If not subject to the Exchange Act reporting requirements, a company must post quarterly financial statements within 45 days of the end of each fiscal quarter;
The company profile page on OTC Markets must be current and accurate;
File annual and quarterly reports with narrative information and CEO and CFO certifications that track SEC Rule 15c2-11 disclosures and can be completed using a fillable form available through OTC Markets;
A company must file a Form 8-K if SEC reporting or submit a news release within 4 days of any of the following:
Entry or Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement
Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets, Including but not Limited to Mergers
