SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[OMB Control No. 3235-0073]


Agency Information Collection Activities; Proposed Collection; 
Comment Request; Extension: Form S-3--Registration Statement

Upon Written Request, Copies Available From: Securities and Exchange 
Commission, Office of FOIA Services, 100 F Street NE, Washington, DC 
20549-2736

    Notice is hereby given that, pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction 
Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the Securities and Exchange 
Commission (``Commission'') is soliciting comments on the collection of 
information summarized below. The Commission plans to submit this 
existing collection of information to the Office of Management and 
Budget for extension and approval.
    Form S-3 (17 CFR 239.13) is a short form registration statement 
used by domestic issuers to register a public offering of their 
securities under the Securities Act of 1933 (15 U.S.C. 77a et seq.). 
The information collected is intended to ensure the adequacy of 
information available to investors in connection with securities 
offerings. We estimate that Form S-3 takes approximately 458.87 hours 
per response and is filed once per year by approximately 1,467 issuers, 
for a total of approximately 1,467 responses annually. We estimate that 
25% of the 458.87 hours per response is carried internally by the 
issuer for annual reporting burden of 168,291 hours ((25% x 458.87 
hours per response) x 1,467 responses). We estimate that 75% of the 
458.87 hours per response is carried externally by outside 
professionals retained by the issuer at an estimated rate of $600 per 
hour for a total annual cost burden of $302,923,031 ((75% x 458.87 
hours per response) x $600 per hour x 1,467 responses).
    An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required 
to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a 
currently valid OMB control number.
    Written comments are invited on: (a) whether this proposed 
collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of 
the functions of the agency, including whether the information will 
have practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the agency's estimate of 
the burden imposed by the collection of information; (c) ways to 
enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information collected; 
and (d) ways to minimize the burden of the collection of information on 
respondents, including through the use of automated collection 
techniques or other forms of information technology.
    Please direct your written comments on this 60-Day Collection 
Notice to Austin Gerig, Director/Chief Data Officer, Securities and 
Exchange Commission, c/o Tanya Ruttenberg via email to 
<a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#3d6d5c4d584f4a524f566f5859485e495452537c5e497d4e585e135a524b"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="d484b5a4b1a6a3bba6bf86b1b0a1b7a0bdbbba95b7a094a7b1b7fab3bba2">[email&#160;protected]</span></a> by November 28, 2025. There will be a 
second opportunity to comment on this SEC request following the Federal 
Register publishing a 30-Day Submission Notice.

    Dated: September 24, 2025.
Sherry R. Haywood,
Assistant Secretary.
