GREAT WEST GOLD, INC. - UPDATE ON FILINGS | 14:39 30.01.07 | GREAT WEST GOLD, INC. - FORWARD STOCK SPLIT
Company to effect a 2 for 1 Forward Split of its Common Stock
NEW YORK, NY, January 30, 2007, Great West Gold, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: GWGO) confirms that the Company authorized a 2 for 1 Forward Split of the Company's Common Stock.
This Forward Split is effective from February 8, 2007 and that will serve as the "Record Date". The Company has filed Notice of this action with the NASD.
This Stock Dividend will be electronically credited to stockholders brokerage accounts shortly after the "Record Date", being February 13, 2007. Those stockholders who are not holding their stockholding with their Brokers or hold restricted shares of the Company's Common Stock, will receive their Stock Dividends in certificated form, to be held by "on book" by the Company's Transfer Agent.
The rationale for this Forward Split of the Company's Stock is that the stock price could not be trading at a lower price than it is at this time, and this action will effectively result in a 100% increase in stockholder value, as from February 8, 2007.
The new President of the Company, Mr Pete Bezzano commented that after reviewing the numerous stockholder communications in respect of the stock price, it was decided to provide immediate relief to stockholders through this Forward Split of the Company's Common Stock.
