DECN Receives "No Comment" Letter from SEC, Providing Ability, Upon Formal Qualification, to Raise Up to $7.5 Million in Financing Under Regulation A
LOS ANGELES, CA / ACCESSWIRE / September 6, 2018 / Decision Diagnostics Corp. (OTC PINK: DECN) (the "Company") is a 16 year old, diabetes-focused bio-technology R&D firm, manufacturer, quality plan administrator, FDA registered medical device customer support organization, and exclusive worldwide sales and regulatory process agent for the GenUltimate! ("Sunshine") diabetes test strip, the internationally launched GenSure! ("Feather") diabetes test strip, the clinical trial in process GenChoice! ("Ladybug") test strip, the market ready PetSure! test strip for the diabetic testing of dogs and cats, and the GenPrecis! ("Dragonfly") diabetes testing system, ready for clinical trials.
Decision Diagnostics is pleased to announce that the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") Staff completed its initial review of our proposed offering under Regulation A, for up to $7.5 million, by sending a "no comment" letter. On July 31, 2018 DECN filed a preliminary Offering Statement on Form 1-A including a preliminary Offering Circular pursuant to Regulation A under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Offering Statement"). During the interim period, the Offering Statement was subject to review and potential comment letters from the SEC Staff. DECN is pleased to announce that the SEC Staff has returned a response, in less than four weeks of the date of filing, with no comments. As a result, the offering statement can potentially be qualified by the Company with the SEC as soon as several actions are taken by the company, including qualification for Blue Sky status in at least one state, and once the Company's placement agent (if any) clears its compensation arrangements with FINRA. We have begun these actions. DECN will make a further announcement upon the qualification of the Offering Statement.
CEO Keith Berman commented, "This latest evolution in our capital structure positions us to, at our discretion, raise additional working capital from traditional capital markets with our Reg A+ Offering Statement. We believe the offering, if successful, will give us the ability to expand into the many product divisions that we have been communicating recently to all of DECN's stakeholders. This accomplishment is no small achievement."
