Marketwired
OMDA Oil and Gas, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: OOAG) approves the retirement
of an additional 58,000,000 common shares of its stock which will
further reduce its outstanding share count by an additional 25%.
Earlier this week OMDA announced a reduction of 12,000,000 common
shares which is 5% of the outstanding share count. Upon the
completion of all of the announced share retirements the new
outstanding share count will stand at 172,610,100. In total OMDA
will have reduced its outstanding share total nearly 30% from the
original 242,610,100. Upon completion of all pending share
cancellations OMDA's insiders will collectively hold less than 10%
of the common vote. With 50.1% of the common vote required to
approve all major corporate governance matters, OMDA would be
required to secure consent from more than 40% of the its
shareholders to reach a majority approval. Majority shareholder
approval is necessary for such issues as share issuances, changing
the authorized shares, and splits of any kind. OMDA has confirmed
with its securities attorney that the cancellation of shares does
not require a shareholder vote. The company is able to retire
shares at its discretion without shareholder consent. As previously
stated, neither OMDA, nor its officers and directors have any
preferred shares since their recent cancellation.
OMDA has been operating and growing on a total cash basis and
has not issued any new shares of any kind in over 17 months, nor
does the company have any intentions of issuing shares of any kind
in the near future. All shareholders of record of OMDA Oil and Gas,
Inc. can expect to receive a mailer shortly from the company
Transfer Agent and Broadridge with all of the recent corporate
governance changes that were announced and completed.
Mr. Barnett said, "All of our recent corporate developments that
we have announced are part of our continuing effort to rebuild OMDA
and to better position our shareholders for our anticipated growth.
In each of our recent initiatives, our board of directors was
unanimous in their vote and commitment to increase shareholder
value and provide our investors with tangible benefits. When all
the dust finally settles, our outstanding share total will be
nearly 30% lower than it is at this moment." Mr. Barnett went on to
say, "Aside from these very important share structure changes we
have initiated, we have been very busy evaluating several other
projects that we feel will improve OMDA's value. Additionally we
are currently working on some other very productive corporate
improvements. Further significant company updates on these
initiatives will be forthcoming this week."
