4Front Ventures (CSE: FFNT) (OTCQB: FFNTF) has provided an update regarding its application for a management cease trade order (MCTO). The company submitted the MCTO application to the Ontario Securities Commission (OSC) on April 16th due to delays in filing its 2024 annual financial statements.

On April 21st, the OSC informed 4Front that it does not meet the eligibility criteria under National Policy 12-203 for an MCTO based on their review of trading activity. Instead of proceeding with the MCTO review, the OSC will issue a failure-to-file cease trade order (FFCTO) after the April 30, 2025 filing deadline. The company can apply for order revocation by filing the outstanding documents within 90 days of the FFCTO date, without requiring a separate application or fee.

4Front Ventures (CSE: FFNT) (OTCQB: FFNTF) ha fornito un aggiornamento riguardo alla sua richiesta di un ordine di sospensione delle negoziazioni per la direzione (MCTO). La società ha presentato la domanda di MCTO alla Ontario Securities Commission (OSC) il 16 aprile a causa di ritardi nella presentazione del bilancio annuale 2024.

Il 21 aprile, l'OSC ha comunicato a 4Front che non soddisfa i criteri di ammissibilità previsti dalla National Policy 12-203 per un MCTO, in base alla revisione dell'attività di trading. Invece di procedere con la revisione del MCTO, l'OSC emetterà un ordine di sospensione delle negoziazioni per mancata presentazione (FFCTO) dopo la scadenza del 30 aprile 2025. La società potrà richiedere la revoca dell'ordine presentando i documenti mancanti entro 90 giorni dalla data del FFCTO, senza necessità di una domanda o di una tassa aggiuntiva.
