If you go down to the very bottom of that press release for which you provided the link, there is a section entitled 'Forward-Looking Disclaimer and Disclosure'. In that section there is an explanation that Hemp, Inc. is listed on the pink sheets. As such, they are not required to report to the OTC. This provision was provided so that small companies, Like Hemp, Inc. would not need to absorb exhorbidant costs associated with such a requirement. Large companies on the regular boards are not generally burdened by picking up such costs.
Because of being on the pink slips, Hemp, Inc. automatically gets flagged with the stop sign. Bruce goes on to explain that Hemp, Inc. actually does file quarterly and annual reports in spite of not being required to.
If you google 'Financial Disclosures - Hemp Inc. 2019', a page of links will come up with many links. Choose the one to the link 'hempinc.>financial disclosures', and there will be all the filings from past years. If you click on the very top ones, you will get the most recent quarterly and annual reporting.
As to your statement that companies like Hemp, Inc. should be relegated to the "Gray's, Hemp, Inc. is already listed on a pink, so they are already there -- but, they are reporting even though they are not required to do so.
