Leatt Corporation, a global developer of personal protective equipment for athletes in extreme sports, including the Leatt-Brace, which helps prevent devastating cervical spine injuries in helmeted sports, announced it has been approved to continue quotation of its securities on OTCQB, the venture stage marketplace (the “OTCQB”), effective as of August 1, 2014.

The OTCQB marketplace, operated by OTC Markets Group Inc., has long replaced FINRA’s OTC Bulletin Board as the primary marketplace for off-exchange-traded companies that are current in their reporting to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission or a bank regulator. OTC Markets Group recently established new eligibility standards for the OTCQB, aimed at improving the quality of information available to investors and making it a better venture stage marketplace for early and developing U.S. and international companies. OTCQB companies that do not comply with the new standards within the required timeframe will be downgraded to the OTC Pink marketplace.

“We are very pleased that our securities have been approved for continued quotation under the new OTCQB eligibility standards,” remarked CEO Sean Macdonald. “We have worked diligently over the years to grow our Company and maximize shareholder value, and we wholeheartedly support the mission of OTC Markets Group to provide increased transparency to investors so that they can properly analyze, value and trade their securities.”
