On
March 30, 2018, P.A.M. Transportation Services, Inc. issued a news release announcing that it has filed a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") to register the potential offer and sale to the public, from time to time in one or more offerings, of an indeterminate number of shares of its common stock, preferred stock, debt securities, rights and warrants up to a total aggregate offering amount of $350,000,000. The registration statement also registers the potential resale of up to 1,482,382 secondary shares of the Company's common stock held by our Chairman and controlling stockholder, Matthew T. Moroun, and 17,618 secondary shares of the Company's common stock held by a member of our Board of Directors, Manuel J. Moroun. A copy of the news release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
The registration statement on Form S-3 has not yet been declared effective by the SEC. The securities may not be sold and offers to buy may not be accepted prior to the time the registration statement becomes effective. This Current Report shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy, nor shall there be any sale of the securities in any state or other jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation, or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or other jurisdiction.
The information contained in this report and the exhibit hereto shall not be deemed "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), or incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
