HOUSTON, Dec. 20, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- CARBO Ceramics
Inc. ("CARBO" or "the Company") today announced that, as
anticipated, it received notification from the New York Stock
Exchange ("NYSE") of the suspension of trading of the Company's
common shares effective today, December 20,
2019, at the close of trading as a result of its failure to
meet the NYSE's average global market capitalization continued
listing criteria. CARBO expects that its common shares will begin
trading on the OTCQB Market under the symbol "CRRT" on December 23, 2019.

This announcement follows the Company's December 13, 2019 disclosure of its application
to list CARBO's common shares on the OTCQB Market.
Importantly, the transition will not impact CARBO's business
operations or the Company's ongoing transformation strategy to
improve its cash position, diversify its business, and strengthen
its financial foundation in the face of oil and gas industry
volatility. As previously disclosed, this action does not cause an
event of default under any of CARBO's material debt or other
agreements. The Company will continue to adhere to its SEC
reporting requirements.
