Item 5Full Description of Material Change

 

5.1Full Description of Material Change

 

The Company announced that it notified the NASDAQ Stock Market LLC (“NASDAQ”) of its intention to voluntarily delist its common voting shares and variable voting shares (collectively, the “Shares”) from NASDAQ. The Company’s Shares will continue to trade on the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”).

 

With the majority of its Shares trading on the TSX, the Company believes the costs and administrative requirements associated with maintaining a dual listing are not justified at this time. The decision to delist from NASDAQ is consistent with the Company’s previously announced cost saving efforts with a portion of these savings to be redeployed for investing in growth areas of the business

 

The Company plans to file a Form 25 with the Securities Exchange Commissions (the “SEC”) and expects that its Shares will cease trading on NASDAQ on or about December 24, 2019. Following its delisting from NASDAQ, the Company intends to voluntarily deregister its Shares in the U.S. and cease its public reporting obligations with the SEC. The Company’s Form 40-F for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019 is expected to be its last publicly filed report with the SEC. WildBrain’s financial statements, press releases and other information will continue to be available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com and on its website at www.wildbrain.com.
