NOHO Novation Holdings Inc (CE)

Novation Holdings (OTCBB:NOHO) today announced that the company's stock trading symbol has been changed by FINRA to NOHO from the prior symbol ALZM, effective today.

As a result of the recent (November 6, 2012) effective date of the name change, reverse split and change of corporate domicile, the trading symbol for the common stock changed as of November 6, 2012 to "ALZMD" to signify the completion of the reverse split and the issuance of a new CUSIP number for the common stock. On December 6, 2012, the "ALZMD" trading symbol was changed back to "ALZM" by FINRA, the same as before the effective date. This is in accordance with the policy of FINRA, which issues and maintains trading symbols for all public companies, that a trading symbol for a company engaged in a reverse split or other corporation transaction is first changed by adding a "D" as a fifth letter for a period of 20 business days, after which the symbol reverts to the old, pre-transaction symbol for the next 10 business days, when a new permanent symbol is issued. Accordingly, the new trading symbol NOHO, representative of the new Novation Holdings name, was issued by FINRA on December 19, 2012, effective today.

Michael Gelmon, Chairman and CEO of Novation, stated, "This symbol change to NOHO represents the final step in transforming the company from a focus exclusively on development of medical devices to a diversified holding company with interests in medical devices, early childhood language education, Internet service providers, and Internet distribution and sale of consumer and health and beauty products. Limiting our focus to the high risk, capital intensive, medical device market did not seem to be a prudent use of our resources, particularly with the imminent new tax on medical device manufacturers. This expansion of our business model will allow us to generate revenues and profits must faster and to position us for more acquisitions."
