Why NewAge Shares Are Volatile Friday

NewAge Inc NBEV shares are trading higher by 57.69% to $0.19 Friday morning on continued volatility after the company recently announced it filed a voluntary petition for relief under chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code. The stock is rebounding after trading lower yesterday.

What Else?

NewAge says the company has determined that the Chapter 11 process is the most expeditious way to pursue a strategic transaction and protect and preserve value for all stakeholders.

NewAge says the Company, with the help of its advisors, has secured a commitment for a "debtor in possession" financing facility of $16.0 million, subject to court approval. NewAge says this capital, together with revenue generated from ongoing operations, will provide liquidity to support the Company through the sale process.
