Exhibit 99.3
SAMSON OIL & GAS ANNOUNCES SUSPENSION OF TRADING OF AMERICAN DEPOSITARY SHARES ON NYSE AMERICAN EXCHANGE AND PENDING DELISTING
Denver 1700 hours November 19th, 2017, Perth 0700 hours, November 20th 2017.
As previously announced by the NYSE, trading of the Company’s American Depositary Shares {ADSs), each representing 200 of its ordinary shares, was suspended on November 16. The suspension was the result of a decision by an NYSE Listing Qualifications Panel to deny Samson’s request for additional time to meet the minimum shareholders’ equity requirements for continued listing of the ADSs on the NYSE American and to begin the delisting process for the ADSs by the filing of a Form 25 with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The ADSs will begin trading on the OTCBB on Monday November 20, 2017 under the symbol SSNYY. Samson has also made arrangements for the ADSs to trade on an OTC Markets trading platform (either OTCQB or OTCQX) once the formalities of that application process are completed.
