NEW YORK, Oct. 12, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — OTC Markets Group Inc. (OTCQX: OTCM), operator of regulated markets for trading 12,000 U.S. and international securities, today announced Computershare Limited (ASX: CPU, OTCQX: CMSQY, CMSQF), the world’s largest stock transfer agent, has qualified to trade on the OTCQX® Best Market. Computershare upgraded to OTCQX from the Pink Limited™ Market.

Computershare’s American Depositary Receipts and ASX listed ordinary shares begin U.S. dollar trading on OTCQX under the symbols “CMSQY” and “CMSQF,” respectively. Investors and broker dealers can find current financial disclosure and Real-Time Level 2 quotes for the company at www.otcmarkets.com.

Computershare serves more than 25,000 client organizations in 22 countries. The company works with issuers around the world to support shareholder administration and manage a range of corporate actions, employee share plans, governance, corporate trust and investor engagement programs.

“Computershare is trusted by thousands of public companies with its issuer, corporate trust and employee share plans services,” said Cromwell Coulson, President and CEO of OTC Markets Group. “By joining OTCQX, the company is showing its own commitment to global transparency, compliance and governance by giving U.S. investors, brokers and advisors greater access to ongoing disclosure and share ownership.”

“By allowing our ADR and ordinary shares to trade on OTCQX, we are simplifying our trading structure in the U.S. while maintaining convenient access for our U.S. investors,” said Nick Oldfield, Chief Financial Officer at Computershare.

For companies listed on a qualified international exchange, such as the ASX, streamlined market standards enable them to utilize their home market reporting to make their information available in the U.S. To qualify for OTCQX, companies must meet high financial standards, follow best practice corporate governance and demonstrate compliance with applicable securities laws.
