What To Know: In early April, AMC proposed a settlement with shareholders, which would have allowed for the conversion of APE units into common shares. The proposed plan also included a reverse stock split that would have diluted AMC shareholders. 

Vice Chancellor Morgan T. Zurn rejected the settlement on Friday, per Bloomberg, noting that the settlement could not be approved as submitted.

AMC sent in a revised settlement on Monday. After the market close, a new court document showed the deal is set to go back to the judge on an expedited timeline.
