Community Service Communications, Inc. Announces Final Liquidating Distribution
MONMOUTH, Maine, July 16, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Community Service Communications, Inc., OTC: "CMYS", (the "Company") today announced that the Company's Board of Directors has approved a final liquidating distribution (the "Final Liquidating Distribution") of $0.31 per share to the holders of its common stock.
The Final Liquidating Distribution will be payable on or about August 5, 2015, to shareholders of record as of the close of business on July 27, 2015 (the "Record Date") and represents the release of all remaining corporate assets available to shareholders. No further shareholder distributions will be made.
The Company also announced today that its transfer records will be closed, and the Company's stock transfer agent will no longer recognize or record transfers of the Company's common stock for any reason, effective on the Record Date for the Final Liquidating Distribution. There is no requirement for stockholders to surrender shares in connection with the Final Liquidating Distribution. The shares are valueless and no longer traded as of the Final Liquidating Distribution.
The Company's initial distribution under the "Plan" to its shareholders was paid in December 2004. The distribution announced today is the tenth and final distribution in a series of liquidating distributions pursuant to the Plan. Upon payment of this Final Liquidating Distribution, the Company will have made aggregate liquidating distributions to its shareholders of $6,836,806 or $10.81 per share. The "Plan" had predicted an asset value of $3.5 million dollars or $5.53 in liquidating dividends per share. By being patient and selling assets to buyers that recognized their value, combined with efficient management under the Plan, the asset value returned to shareholders was $3,336,806 more than predicted or $5.28 per share.
In connection with this Final Liquidating Distribution the Company will take the necessary actions with NASDAQ to delist the Company common stock and ticker symbol of "CMYS". The Company will file a Certificate of Dissolution with the Maine Secretary of State shortly and effective on the date of such filing, the Company will dissolve under Maine law.
The income tax rules & regulations for reporting the Final Liquidating Distribution announced today and each of the previous liquidating distributions are complicated. The Company recommends that shareholders consult their own tax advisors regarding the tax consequences to them of the Final Liquidation and Dissolution.
