Annual Report

A peculiar fact about today is "Good Friday" is one of the most sacred days of the Christian Calender. The SEC, being part of the secular federal government, enjoys ten holidays, none of them having to do with Easter. Therefore, the SEC and EDGAR the filing service, operates today. The New York Stock Exchange is a private entity and is free to observe whatever holidays it deems appropriate. Therefore, the New York Stock Exchange has observed Good Friday and has closed every year except 1898, 1906 and 1907. For a complete history on Exchange holidays see this:

What does this mean?

Even though the market is closed, GreenShift could still file the annual report today with Edgar and the SEC. Like the SkunK mentioned in an earlier blog, today would be a good day to file a report with less than good news.

If not today then by COB on the 15th

If we do not see the report today, we will see it by 6pm et next Wednesday the 15th. The SEC must have gotten the entire transmission from Edgar by 5:30pm et in order to receive that day's date.

"Companies may request a filing extension for their Form 10-Q's and 10-K's by submitting Form 12b-25 via the EDGAR system. By filing this form, a filer may gain up to 5 additional days to file Form 10-Q or 15 days to file Form 10-K. Companies have up to 24 hours after the original filing deadline to file Form 12b-25."

Good Luck,
SkunK
