Rouge Industries, Inc. Responds to Recent Market Activity in its Common Stock
DEARBORN, Mich., Oct. 27 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Rouge Industries, Inc.
(BULLETIN BOARD: RGID) announced today that while it is not the Company's
policy to comment on market rumors, in view of the recent trading activity in
the Company's stock, the Company has decided to issue the following statement:
As reported in the press, the Company has entered into a non-binding letter of
intent with Severstal. The Severstal transaction is subject to a number of
significant conditions, including receipt of Bankruptcy Court approval after the
conduct of an auction. There can be no assurance the proposed Severstal
transaction or any other transaction will be consummated nor can there be any
assurance that any such transaction will yield sufficient proceeds after the
payment of all debts and expenses to make any distribution to stockholders.
Indeed, it is likely that there will be no recovery for the Company's
stockholders. The Company does not intend to comment further on these matters.
