Clarification Issued by Camtek
MIGDAL HAEMEK, Israel, June 9, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --
Following investors' questions and a potentially misleading press report, Camtek Ltd. (NASDAQ: CAMT; TASE: CAMT) wishes to clarify market rumors regarding a recent Company filing with the U.S. Securities Exchange Commission. Its filing of a "final" prospectus on June 7, 2017 was a technical filing relating back to a "shelf" registration filed by the Company and approved by the SEC on April 14, 2017. That registration replaced a nearly identical "shelf" registration that expired on that date.
A shelf registration gives the named parties the right to freely sell the covered securities but not the obligation or commitment to do so. Any sales, if they were to occur, must be made by means of another filing with the SEC (a "prospectus supplement") describing the transaction. No such filing has been made. Neither the Company nor Priortech will comment on any plans to raise capital or sell Camtek shares.
