ITEM 1. | INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS FORM6-K REPORT |
On June 1, 2020, Seadrill Limited (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing its intention to delist from the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”). The Company has notified the NYSE of the Board’s decision to proceed with a delisting. The Company intends to file a Form 25 with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on or about June 11, 2020 in order to delist its common shares from the NYSE, which will occur ten days thereafter upon effectiveness of the Form 25. Accordingly, the Company anticipates that the last day of trading on the NYSE will be on or about June 19, 2020, which is the last trading day prior to the effectiveness of the Form 25. Seadrill Limited will retain its listing on the Oslo Børs under the ticker symbol ‘SDRL’. The Company anticipates that its common shares will trade in the over the counter (“OTC”) market if one or more brokers chooses to make a market for our common shares and does not expect the transition to the OTC to affect business operations. The decision to delist will not impact the Company’s intent to continue to make required filings with the SEC.
A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Report and is incorporated herein by reference.
