LegacyXChange had its securities revoked by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for failing to file required reports to the agency for four years.
Legacy is an inactive shell company that operates an online platform for buying and selling sports-related products through live auction. After filing to go public in April 2016, Legacy notified the SEC in June 2016 it would be completing its first report late.
“[B]etween July 2016 and November 2020, Legacy failed to file that report, any other required periodic reports, or any additional Forms 12b-25 to notify the commission that it needed additional time to file its periodic reports,” the SEC said in an administrative proceeding Tuesday.
