LOS ANGELES, CA, Sept. 05, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — via NEWMEDIAWIRE — Agritek Holdings, Inc. (OTC PINK: AGTK) www.AgritekHoldings.com, a fully integrated, active real estate investor for the cannabis sector in the United States and Canada, today announced that the Company expects to file its quarterly financial report for the term ending June 30, 2019 over the next two weeks. The filing will now allow Agritek Holdings Inc. to return to its fully reporting status and complete its application to the OTCQB. 

The company is also excited to announce that its registration statement is now completed and will be filed following the quarterly report. The S-1 registration statement will provide the Company with up to $5,000,000 in equity funding, helping eliminate convertible debt which the Company believes has been placing the common share price under pressure. Terms of the registration were earlier announced in the Company’s 8K filing last month.

“We are pleased to announce that we will soon file our quarterly report, bringing the Company back into the compliance and fully reporting status. We have brought on a new team of financial advisers to keep us up to date and timely file all financial reports moving forward. This will ensure that we remain in compliance for the exchange, guide us through the process of the equity financing and funding and further provide guidance for future acquisition models,” stated a spokesperson for Agritek Holdings.
