Non-notable company, fails WP:CORP. The only sources in the article are primary and self-published. Article created as part of a school project which appears to have the aim of creating articles for "ALL publicly traded companies", for those "several hundreds of publicly traded companies [that do] not have their corporate entries on Wikipedia" - all this without any regard for notability, of course.

 * Delete without prejudice to userfication, draft-ification, re-creation, or future un-deletion to a place other than the main encyclopedia provided that any attempt to have an article about this company in the main encyclopedia will not be allowed unless it clearly demonstrates that the company meets Wikipedia's notability guidelines.   davidwr/  (talk)/(contribs)  18:33, 31 March 2014 (UTC)
 * Side comment regarding educational program The ambassador working with this class needs to be brought into this discussion so he can work with the professor(s) and student(s) to make sure that such articles are not created in the future as part of this class assignment. If there is no assigned ambassador, the closing administrator should contact the professor(s) involved and politely but firmly encourage (and if necessary, insist) that they require their students to follow Wikipedia's notability guidelines and recommend that the professor(s) to suspend work until an ambassador can be assigned to work with them. davidwr/  (talk)/(contribs)  18:33, 31 March 2014 (UTC)
