Sadly, it appears the CEO is misinforming the public again
Joe Moscato, Generex President & Chief Executive Officer, who controls the Pool to the benefit of Generex, has assigned the shares to the corporate treasury. In the coming days, the market will reflect the Pool retirement with a reduction in our outstanding share count by over 20 million shares.
When shares are RETIRED, they do not end up in corp treasury. They are eliminated completely, like they never existed and may not be reissued.
If the POOL shares are being returned to treasury and not retired, they may be reissued at a later date. They are also considered ISSUED SHARES
