Reno-Specialty fertilizer maker Itronics Inc. said May 12 that while it is making every effort to file its Form 10-K with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission prior to May 18, 2009, its board of directors has decided to spend current resources on the business. Specifically, Itronics said it has a record backlog of orders it is attempting to fill, causing a major increase in cash flow requirements. “While we understand the impact this has on our loyal shareholders, we simply have to do what is best for the future of the entire company,” said Dr. John Whitney, president.
