Only FINRA knows. There are very strict guidelines a RS would be declined, none of those happened here. Company has 10 days 2 send in Issuer Company-Related Action Notification Form. After that FINRA looks over everything and if they find something not 2 their liking, gives company 90 days 2 respond with proper info. If they don't, it is closed.

Of course if they find info that shows fraud or manipulation, itll be shut down immediately.

Here is info.

FINRA Operations Determination Once an issuer or its duly authorized representative submits a Company-Related Action Notification Form, FINRA Operations will review the submission and may request additional information or documentation as may be necessary to verify the accuracy of the information. If the party that submits the form does not sufficiently respond within 90 calendar days of the date FINRA Operations requests additional information or documentation, the request will be deemed “lapsed” and will be closed.

During the course of the review, if FINRA Operations believes that one of five explicitly enumerated factors outlined in Rule 6490 may be triggered, it generally will conduct an in-depth review of the Company-Related Action and may seek additional information or documentation from the issuer or duly authorized representative as outlined above. Where a Company-Related Action is deemed deficient, FINRA Operations may determine that it is necessary for the protection of investors, the public interest and to maintain fair and orderly markets, that documentation related to a Company-Related Action will not be processed. Factors that may be considered by the FINRA Operations in finding a request to process documentation related to a Company-Related

Action deficient are explicitly limited to the following:

1. FINRA staff reasonably believes the forms and all supporting documentation, in whole or in part, may not be complete, accurate or with proper authority;

2. the issuer is not current in its reporting obligations, if applicable, to the SEC or other regulatory authority;

3. FINRA has actual knowledge that parties related to the Company-Related Action are the subject of pending, adjudicated or settled regulatory action or investigation by a regulatory body, or civil or criminal action related to fraud or securities laws violations4;

4. a government authority or regulator has provided information to FINRA, or FINRA has actual knowledge, indicating that persons related to the Company-Related Action may be potentially involved in fraudulent activities related to the securities market and/or pose a threat to public investors; and/or

5. there is significant uncertainty in the settlement and clearance process for the security.
