Netcapital Funding Portal Hires Equity Stock Transfer as Transfer Agent for Its Online Securities Offerings

Netcapital Inc. (OTCQX: NCPL) is pleased to announce that its wholly owned subsidiary, Netcapital Funding Portal Inc. (“Netcapital”), has engaged Equity Stock Transfer LLC (“EST”) to be the SEC-registered transfer agent for issuers that conduct securities offerings on Netcapital.com.

A transfer agent to both private and public companies, EST’s engagement allows Netcapital issuers to experience a smooth, frictionless transition to later stage fundraises and when shareholder communications, meetings, proxy voting or a public listing are sought.

“We strive to provide top-level services to all the issuers that come to Netcapital, and we are delighted that EST has agreed to serve as the transfer agent for each issuer,” Netcapital CEO, Jason Frishman, said of the hire. “EST has hundreds of clients and has worked with us to create a simple and cost-effective solution to serve the privately held companies that list on Netcapital, with the same level of quality and service that is provided to publicly traded companies. We expect that several of these companies will decide to continue to work with EST if they file a Regulation A+ offering or an IPO.”

“Netcapital has attracted a vast array of early-stage companies and talented entrepreneurs, some of whom have raised millions of dollars on the platform,” said Mohit Bhansali, CEO of EST and who also serves as an active member of the Securities Transfer Association (STA), “We are excited to be a part of the Netcapital team and offer our leading software solutions and highly qualified and dedicated personnel. We anticipate supporting Netcapital’s issuers by managing their cap table, original issuances, and secondary trades.”
