How can a publicly traded company shut down without a vote or notice?

211 viewsEconomicsOther

My partner was informed last week that her publicly traded company is shutting down, and from my current understanding there was no buy out/merger or bankruptcy filing. Shareholders didn’t vote on it and it is not a single majority owned company (over half company owned by individuals or public companies). I’d like to know the scenarios in which this could happen.

When you don’t have the cash to continue operations AND you are unable to raise that cash AND you can’t find a buyer for the company, shutting down is not a choice. There is no vote or alternative option.
