Reporting Company can now raise Capital with Reg A+



Expansion of Regulation A+ for SEC Reporting Companies
We are pleased to share an exciting development in our ongoing campaign to enhance the capital raising opportunities for Small-Cap companies. Last week, the Economic Growth, Regulatory Relief, and Consumer Protection Act (S. 2155) was enacted into law and included key legislation expanding Regulation A+ to SEC reporting companies.

Regulation A+ allows small companies to raise up to $50 million online, transparently and directly from the public without the extensive cost burden of a full SEC public offering. However, the SEC initially did not allow SEC reporting companies to raise capital through Regulation A+.

The passage of The Economic Growth, Regulatory Relief, and Consumer Protection Act (S.2155) marks a pivotal milestone for our smaller companies and issuers. Section 508 of the bill incorporates the Improving Access to Capital Act, based in large part upon OTC Markets Group’s 2016 SEC Petition for Rulemaking. The Improving Access to Capital Act, which amends Regulation A+ to allow SEC reporting companies to use this innovative capital raising tool, was originally passed by the House of Representatives in September 2017 in a bipartisan, 404-3 vote.

OTC Markets Group believes this legislation will be instrumental to improving the capital raising process and increasing the number of public companies that can efficiently access our capital markets. We thank the members of the House and Senate who voted to pass S.2155, recognizing the work of Congresswoman Kyrsten Sinema (D-AZ) and Congressman Trey Hollingsworth (R-IN), lead sponsors of the Improving Access to Capital Act in the House, and collective efforts of Representatives Sinema and Hollingsworth, and cosponsors Rep. Roger Williams (R-TX), Rep. French Hill (R-AR), Rep. Luke Messer (R-IN), and Rep. Brad Sherman (D-CA), whose contributions led to this important initiative becoming law.

OTC stocks more difficult to trade and deposit

  Mina Mar Group helps micro-cap companies structure their growth. Micro-capitalized companies are those with less than $50,000,000 in equity, sometimes under $1,000,000. Restructuring involves raising money (both debt and stock), and planning how they will eventually harvest that wealth. If you’re a founder or investor, the secret to harvesting your equity is to possess assets with a developed market for their sale; up until recently, that market was the public market. Now, Over-The-Counter Securities (“OTC Securities”) don’t serve that purpose since, unless you’re a tech unicorn doing an IPO, there are essentially no ways to sell the shares you’ve invested in. OTC securities – how they were deposited five years ago. Brokerages all around the country have tightened compliance over the past five years to the point where no one may deposit share certificates into their brokerage accounts, even if they can prove that they paid for them. Consider the following demand from a secondary ...

Going through Acquisition with Mina Mar Group

An acquisition is the purchase of one business or company by another company. It happens when acquiring company buys most or all target company's shares in order to take control and or other assets of the company. They have to buy more than 50% of ownership. In acquisition usually bigger company buys smaller company and absorb it or run it as subsidiary. Roll-ups or consolidation happen when two or more companies combine in a new business entity. Acquisitions are divided into "private" and "public" depending on whether acquired or target company is or is not listed on the public market. Additional dimension or categorization consists of whether an acquisition is friendly or hostile (hostile takeover). More mergers and acquisitions happens with small to medium size companies. One type of acquisition is reverse merger or reverse takeover enables private company to be publicly listed in a relatively short time frame. Reverse merger occurs when a privately ...

Our perspective on reverse merger

When we are talking about market perspective usually the financial community is mostly focused on private companies that want to go public and are prepared to pay for the privilege of going through an IPO or reverse merger. That is why most financial consultants are looking for the public shell company just to close the deal. Often private companies that use reverse merger to go public are ill-informed on ability to raise funds, unprepared for the intensive effort and extensive costs to create liquidity. This can even lead company to become a shell itself due to lack of action in implementation of needed solutions. This way there is no long term benefit on both sides. Mina Mar Group sees things quite differently. Instead of making quick profit shared between shell owner and us. We deal with private companies that already offer profits  and that truly deserve to be publicly traded and can attract investors at the retail and institutional level and build...
