SHAREHOLDER ALERT: Attorney Adam S. Tracy Announces Investigation into VeriTeQ Corp Over Recent Sale of Convertible Notes

Beverly Hills, California — May 15, 2015 /prleap/ — This morning securities attorney Adam Tracy and the attorneys of the Securities Compliance Group, a leading securities law firm based in Chicago, announced an investigation in the affiars of VeriTeQ Corp. The investigation centers around potential breaches of fiduciary duty and material failures to disclose with respect to VeriTeQ's private sale of convertible debentures. The company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission suggest that VeriTeQ has sold in the aggregate, approximate amount of $346,000.

"So-called "toxic" debt financing is a common form of financing prevalent among microcap issuers," said Adam Tracy. "What can be so deleterious to existing shareholders and especially smaller shareholders is that, as in the case with VeriTeq, the debt can be converted into shares of the issuer's common stock at a fraction of the current price, " he continued. "Ultimately, as may be the case here, the potential new issuance of stock arising from the debt conversions can exceeds the total issued and outstanding shares, making it extremely dillutive and detrimental to existing shareholders."
