 * Keep A search on google scholar, google books , WP Refs , and news contain plenty of sources that are reliable. This article passes the WP:GNG. AmericanAir88(talk)  14:42, 22 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Comment Hi, can you please post links to just two references that you believe meet the criteria for establishing notability? Your logic of "plenty of sources that are reliable" is a small subset of the criteria for establishing notability - please take a read of WP:CORPDEPTH and WP:ORGIND.

 * Keep: WP:NOTCLEANUP The company is WP:LISTED on the NYSE (roughly 2,800 companies are listed on the NYSE). Being listed is not a guarantee of automatic notability... WP:BEFORE was needed to find "independent press coverage and analyst reports." Company is Profiled in Forbes, Reuters, The Street. Non-trivial coverage exists New Hampshire Business Review Seeking Alpha, Insurance Journal, Valley News, Business Insurance, Mayfield Recorder, etc. Lightburst (talk) 19:21, 5 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Comment The article requires major cleanup but in my opinion the notability isn’t there yet. Trillfendi (talk) 20:44, 5 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep Although most of the references provided above fail the criteria for establishing notability, since this is a listed company, one of the easiest ways to immediately pass the criteria for establishing notability is to point to analyst reports (as per WP:LISTED, analyst reports are specifically mentioned as good for the purposes of establishing notability). Here's a list of various reports on WTM from Zacks (but from different analysts/firms!). Topic therefore meets GNG and WP:NCORP. <b style="font-family: Courier; color: darkgreen;"> HighKing</b>++ 20:48, 5 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep per WP:LISTED & per analyst reports available. --K.e.coffman (talk) 17:33, 11 August 2019 (UTC)
