As previously disclosed on SeaChange International, Inc.’s (the “Company”) Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on August 8, 2023, the board of directors of the Company determined to effect a suspension of its reporting obligations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”), and the Company has notified The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) of the Company’s intent to voluntarily delist its common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), from The Nasdaq Capital Market (the “Nasdaq Capital Market”) and withdraw the registration of its Common Stock with the SEC under the Exchange Act.
On August 18, 2023, the Company filed a Form 25 with the SEC to delist its Common Stock from the Nasdaq Capital Market and confirmed with Nasdaq that the Common Stock is expected to cease trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market as of the close of the trading day on or about August 25, 2023. The Company expects to file a Form 15 with the SEC on or about August 28, 2023, to commence the process of terminating the registration of its Common Stock under Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act, and the filing of the Form 15 immediately suspends the Company’s reporting obligations under Sections 13(a) and 15(d) of the Exchange Act, including Forms 10-K, 10-Q, and 8-K.
The Company anticipates that its Common Stock will be quoted on the OTC Expert Market to the extent market makers make a market in the Common Stock. No guarantee, however, can be made that a trading market in the Common Stock in any over-the-counter market will be made or maintained.
