Item 5. Other Information:
Dallas Gold And Silver Exchange, Inc. announced that after over six years on the
Emerging Company Marketplace of the American Stock Exchange (the "Exchange"), it
has requested and been granted permission to return to the NASDAQ market.
Trading in the Company's common stock commenced on the NASDAQ Small Cap Market
on June 29, 1999 with the new stock symbol DGSE. Concurrently with the
commencement of trading on NASDAQ, the Company filed an application for
withdrawal from listing on the Exchange of its Common Stock pursuant to Section
12(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Trading in the Company's Common
Stock on the Exchange has been suspended, in light of the Company's NASDAQ
listing, pending its delisting from the Exchange.
The Company has taken these actions primarily to provide to Company shareholders
more market exposure and depth in the trading of the Company's Common Stock. The
Company notes, in this regard, that its Common Stock, which was one of the
initial securities approved for listing on the Emerging Company Marketplace of
the American Stock Exchange approximately six years ago, is now one of only nine
companies whose securities are traded in this marketplace. This factor, along
with the special symbol extensions required for the Emerging Company
Marketplace, has resulted in very limited publication of trading information for
the Company's Common Stock in the media and reduced access to timely tape
trading data concerning securities transactions in the Company's Common Stock.
In addition, the Company believes that the multi-market maker trading system of
NASDAQ will provide greater depth, continuity and liquidity for Company
shareholders.
SIGNATURE
In accordance with section 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Registrant has
dully caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned thereunto
duly authorized.
