FORT STOCKTON, Texas, Sept. 17, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- MMEX Resources Corp. (OTCPK: MMEX), a development-stage company focusing on the development of a 10,000 barrel-per-day (BPD) crude distillation unit and a full-scale crude oil refinery in Pecos County near Fort Stockton, Texas, today announced it intends to reverse split its shares on a 100 to 1 basis to provide a capital structure that allows the Company to up-list to other stock exchanges with higher share price listing minimums.  

Jack W. Hanks, President and CEO of MMEX Resources Corp., said, "On September 14, 2018, we gave notice to FINRA that our board of directors had approved a 1 for 100 reverse split of our common stock, to be effective on October 19, 2018. Accordingly, and assuming approval from FINRA is received, each 100 shares of common stock outstanding as of October 19, 2018 will be reclassified as and converted into and become a right to receive one share of common stock. In addition, on September 14, 2018 as announced in our 8K filed today, we repurchased one of our convertible debt notes as the initial step to purchasing potentially other convertible debt notes. Both of these programs will simplify our capital structure, allow us to list on stock exchange platforms with higher stock price listing requirements, greater transparency, and governance leading , we believe , potentially to better opportunities to complete financing for our project development."
