Exhibit 99.1
NightFood® Transitioning to OTCQB
TARRYTOWN, NY, March 31, 2017 -- NightFood Holdings, Inc. (OTC: NGTF), a fully reporting “better-for-you” snack company, today announced that it has completed and submitted its application for an up-list of its common stock to the OTCQB® Venture Marketplace.
The approval process is expected to take between two and four weeks, and management is optimistic that the Company will be approved. Unlike the OTC PINK, the OTCQB is considered by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to be an "established public market" for the purpose of determining the public market price when registering securities for resale with the SEC.
To be eligible, companies must be current in their financial reporting, pass a minimum bid price test and undergo an annual company verification and management certification process. The OTCQB quality standards provide a strong baseline of transparency, as well as the technology and regulation to improve the information and trading experience for investors.
Because the OTCQB increases transparency, reporting standards, management certification and compliance requirements, this can result in greater liquidity and awareness for companies that reach the OTCQB tier.
“This change in tiers is something we identified several months ago as an important step in our growth as a company as we continue to develop the NightFood brand and continue to evaluate other opportunities in the food & beverage space.” stated NightFood CEO Sean Folkson.
