PetroAlgae Announces Listing on OTC Bulletin Board
MELBOURNE, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--PetroAlgae, a leading developer of systems to derive biodiesel fuels from algae, today announced that its parent company, PetroTech Holdings Corp., has acquired Dover Glen, Inc., a publicly-traded company listed on the OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol “DVGL”. As part of this transaction, PetroTech Holdings Corp. transferred its entire ownership interest in PetroAlgae to the newly-acquired company, thereby maintaining its majority ownership position in PetroAlgae, which is expected to account for the newly-acquired company’s sole asset and primary line of business. The name of the newly-acquired company has been changed to PetroAlgae Inc. and is expected to continue to trade under the stock symbol “DVGL” on the OTC Bulletin Board until a new ticker symbol is announced.
“In doing so, we believe we will have met yet another milestone for our company, employees and shareholders. Today’s listing in the U.S. capital markets will, I am sure, provide our shareholders with a platform for much greater liquidity, valuation and financial and operational transparency”
Concurrent with this acquisition and the resignation of the predecessor’s sole officer and director, PetroAlgae’s current Chief Financial Officer, David Szostak, has also assumed the additional duties as the newly-acquired company’s President together with his CFO position, which he is expected to maintain. The newly-acquired company has also appointed three new directors to serve on its Board of Directors.
“Our evolution into a publicly-traded company is simply the next logical and timely step for us, particularly when considering that our groundbreaking technology could allow us to become the first ever to achieve large-scale commercialization of algae-derived biodiesel fuels,” said Dr. John Scott, Director. “In doing so, we believe we will have met yet another milestone for our company, employees and shareholders. Today’s listing in the U.S. capital markets will, I am sure, provide our shareholders with a platform for much greater liquidity, valuation and financial and operational transparency,” concluded Dr. Scott.
