It may be helpful for some investors credibility, and piece of mind, to actually call FINRA, and ask what the process is to get a forward split approved, you can not get info on any certain company, but they will tell you the process.
It is not just filling out paperwork correctly. It is a total investigation of history of the past shells ( to insure no liability's are outstanding) Confirming all things that have been PR'd, Proving all statements, investigating patents.
A company will not get approved for a forward split without being legit.
I suggest that investors do their own DD, call them so other investors are not mislead by lies.
I spoke with them for over a hour, and learned a ton, they will not just volunteer information, you have to ask the right questions.
