The first trading day in our data for Metalico Inc is March 15, 2005 (its first day in our records, which may be later than its listing and is not its founding). At its peak, on June 23, 2008, the market valued it at $663 million. It ended in a collapse: the last trade was $0.59, -96.8% from its split-adjusted high. The delisting record says: likely failure.
