4 Sept 2020listing compliance notice▼ BadMajor
NYSE American cited General Moly for a $115.6 million stockholders' deficit and five straight years of losses, demanding a compliance plan by month's end — the delisting threat had escalated from a low share price to outright insolvency-level deficiencies.

23 May 2019capital raising announcement▼ BadMajor
