(OTCBB: CCTR) today announced that the Company anticipates a continued buy-in to cover short positions as the Company has remained on the Regulation SHO "threshold security" list since the middle of May.
The threshold security list can be found at: http://www.nasdaqtrader.com/trader.aspx?id=RegSHOThreshold.
China Crescent recently reduced the number of issued and outstanding common shares on a ratio of 25:1. Since the reduction, the PPS has traded at a proportionally higher price than prior to the reduction. Any short sales prior to the reverse would now be holding short sales at a loss.
The Company has published a suggested fair value target price of approximately $0.30 PPS. This translates to an approximate $3 million market cap. With $40 million in annual sales and $600,000 in net income, a $3 million market cap would be more than 50% below the market capitalization of comparable systems integration companies based on average P/E ratios.
The Company's daily trading volume has represented approximately 10% of its current issued and outstanding. Management suspects that some portion of the daily trading volume includes new short selling intended to artificially increase the supply of stock and mitigate an upward pps trend while older short positions are covered. Given the regulatory pressure to enforce regulation SHO, management believes that any holder of a short position that has exceeded the regulatory time frame to deliver stock will ultimately have to buy in at a loss, and in turn, contribute to an increased demand for China Crescent stock that would contribute to an increased pps trend.
