Announces Voluntary SEC Deregistration 08.03.2024 / 14:03 CET/CEST\n\n\n\nThe issuer is solely responsible for the content of this announcement.\n\n HOUSTON, TX - (NewMediaWire) - March 08, 2024 - SMG Industries Inc. (“SMG” or the “Company”) (OTCQB: SMGI), a growth-oriented transportation services company specializing in the full-service logistics market, today announced its strategic decision to voluntarily deregister its common stock under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).SMG’s management believes that “going dark” is a prudent step aligned with the Company’s short-term planning and long-term vision.

Upon the filing of the Form 15, the Company’s obligation to file certain reports with the SEC, including Forms 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K, will immediately be suspended. The Company expects the deregistration to become effective 90 days after filing the Form 15 with the SEC.“We remain committed to delivering value to our stockholders.

We appreciate the continuing support of our stockholders and look forward to achieving our long-term vision including this short term plan,” stat...
