You keep saying this is a pump and dump. This looks to be more the victim of a short and Distort.

Short And Distort
What Does Short And Distort Mean?
An illegal practice employed by unethical internet investors who short-sell a stock and then spread unsubstantiated rumors and other kinds of unverified bad news in an attempt to drive down the equity's price and realized a profit.

Investopedia explains Short And Distort
Due to recent corporate scandals and investor uncertainty, fraudsters have an easier time spreading doom and gloom by claiming that a firm is losing a very costly class action suit or is suffering from low earnings. In order to prevent being conned, investors should do their own due diligence and be critical of the authenticity of news from unverified sources.

IMHO this looks like what's happening to EXPH.
