Not sure where you got that info, but there is no form to remove the D (post split). An SEC filer does not even get granted approval for a reverse split without being current. BETS was current at the time. If there was something "terrible wrong," FINRA would NOT have effectuated the r/s. BEST was current at the time of application. FINRA granted the split. BETS is not current now. Until the 10k is filed, the D stays on.
So ... with that said, "the stock is toast" is either a wish or an assumption, but certainly nowhere near fact. Frustrating maybe, but not toast (with or without butter).
