TC Bancshares, Inc.
Announces Voluntary Delisting from NASDAQ
Thomasville, GA — TC Bancshares, Inc. (the “Company”) (Nasdaq: TCBC), the holding company for TC Federal Bank (the “Bank”), announced today its decision to voluntarily delist its common stock from the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC and to deregister its common stock under Section 12(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
The Company has notified Nasdaq of its intent to voluntarily delist and to withdraw the registration of its common stock with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The Company intends to file a Form 25 (Notification of Removal from Listing) with the SEC on or about July 22, 2024, and expects the last trading date for its common stock on Nasdaq will be on or about August 1, 2024. Following delisting from Nasdaq, the Company expects its common stock will be quoted on the OTCQX Best Market beginning on or about August 2, 2024, under the same ticker symbol, “TCBC”. The Company does not anticipate that this transition will cause a disruption in the trading of its shares. In conjunction with the Company’s delisting of its common stock from Nasdaq, it intends to file a Form 15 (Certification and Notice of Termination from Registration) with the SEC on or about August 1, 2024, to suspend its obligations to file periodic reports under the Exchange Act. The Company expects that its obligation to file periodic and current reports, including Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K, will be suspended upon filing of the Form 15.
Greg Eiford, the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, commented that “Our Board of Directors carefully considered the advantages of being an SEC registrant and a Nasdaq listed company, versus the significant cost savings and efficiencies that are anticipated from delisting with Nasdaq and deregistration from the SEC. The Board believes that the benefits to the Company and its shareholders of taking these steps outweighs the advantages of remaining with the SEC and Nasdaq.” Mr. Eiford went on to note that “The Company’s annual financial statements will continue to be audited by its independent auditing firm and the Bank will continue to file quarterly financial reports with the banking regulators, which are publicly available.”
