Calgary, Alberta--(Newsfile Corp. - January 23, 2025) - Hemostemix Inc. (TSXV: HEM) (OTCQB: HMTXF) (FSE: 2VF0) ("Hemostemix" or the "Company") is very pleased to announce that its shares will commence trading on the OTCQB under symbol HMTXF today, January 23, 2025, while the Company presents "Welcome to Your Fountain of Youth!" at the Sequire Investor Summit at 11:00 a.m.
"Listing on the OTCQB enables US investors to buy into their 'Fountain of Youth' and longevity, directly. As an investor in HMTXF, my wife and I invested $300,000 in the last round, which closed in November. We're up 600%. I fully expect in the fullness of time that I will be able to sell part of my position to fund my own ACP treatments. As management and directors, we have invested greater than $9.1 Million in Hemostemix's since 2020. We did so because ACP-01 works: it saves limbs from amputation; it regenerates heart function; it regenerates mental acuity. It is clinically relevant; it is statistically significant; it is safe in 498 treatments. That is all detailed in seven studies of 318 subjects, in nine peer review publications. But why wait for a disease process? Why not invest in Your Fountain of Youth today, to obtain longevity and enjoy the quality of life you have today well into your old age? That is why we trademarked Your Fountain of Youth. That is the message I am delivering to investors," Thomas Smeenk, CEO, said.
Trading on the OTCQB generates the following opportunities for Hemostemix:
1. Higher Standards and Transparency
- The OTCQB requires companies to meet specific eligibility criteria, such as maintaining audited financials and being up-to-date with regulatory reporting. This transparency enhances investor confidence in HMTXF.
2. Increased Liquidity
- Companies who are listed on OTCQB often experience higher trading volumes. Increased liquidity makes it easier for investors to buy and sell HMTXF, which can stabilize stock prices.
3. Access to a Broader Investor Base
- Being listed on OTCQB opens doors to a wider pool of investors, including brokers, managed accounts, institutional investors and others who seek more reliable and transparent opportunities like HMTXF.
4. Market Visibility
- OTCQB companies are included in financial data systems like Bloomberg, Reuters, and Yahoo Finance. This increased visibility attracts more investors.
5. Perception of Credibility
- OTCQB is known as the "Venture Market." Listing on the OTCQB signals that the Company is growth-oriented and committed to maintaining the highest standards of public disclosure.
6. Potential for Institutional Interest
- Due to the higher disclosure requirements, OTCQB companies are more likely to attract interest from institutional investors and analysts. This leads to better funding opportunities, liquidity, and broader market support.
7. Enhanced Corporate Governance
- OTCQB listing rules encourage better corporate governance practices, such as, in Hemostemix's case, appointing independent directors and improving shareholder engagement. This governance attracts sophisticated investors.
8. Step Toward Up-Listing
- OTCQB acts as a stepping stone for companies aiming to list on higher exchanges like NASDAQ or the NYSE. By demonstrating compliance with TSXV and OTCQB standards, Hemostemix is staging itself for an up-listing.
Over the next two days, Thomas Smeenk, President & CEO of Hemostemix, will deliver an engaging presentation highlighting the Company's groundbreaking ACP-01 therapy, global scale-up strategy, and collaborations that are creating economic opportunities for clinicians.
