The clearance enables Alpine to begin quoting AMFN stock, potentially improving liquidity and access for investors, which could support the company's capital markets strategy. However, OTCQB qualification and any future exchange listing remain uncertain, so the immediate market impact is modest.

Fusion Energy Securities

American Fusion Inc. (OTC: AMFN), a developer of fusion energy technology, announced on August 18, 2026 that the United States — Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) has cleared the Form 211 filed on its behalf by Alpine Securities Corporation under SEC Rule 15c2-11. This clearance permits Alpine, as sponsoring market maker, to initiate proprietary priced quotations in American Fusion's common stock. It was the final open item in the company's OTCQB Venture Market application process. American Fusion intends to work with Alpine and OTC Markets Group to complete remaining administrative steps for OTCQB qualification, which remains subject to final approval. The company also plans to evaluate uplisting to a national exchange, such as Nasdaq or the Texas Stock Exchange, and has engaged Lucosky Brookman LLP as securities counsel for that effort.
