Business Wire
Law Offices of Howard G. Smith announces that a class action
lawsuit has been filed in the United States District Court for the
Southern District of New York on behalf of purchasers of the
securities of Tesco PLC (“Tesco” or the “Company”) (OTC:TSCDY)
between February 2, 2014 and September 22, 2014, inclusive (the
“Class Period”).
Tesco operates as a grocery retailer through stores offering
food, groceries, clothing and general merchandise. The complaint
alleges that Tesco made false and/or misleading statements and
failed to disclose material adverse facts about the Company’s
operations and financial performance. Specifically, on September
22, 2014, Tesco announced that it had overstated its expected
profit for the half year by approximately £250m ($402 million) and
that it had accelerated recognition of income and delayed accrual
of certain costs. When this adverse information became known, the
Company's share prices declined nearly 15%, from $11.29 per share
on September 19, 2014, to $9.61 per share on September 22,
2014.
To date, at least eight Tesco executives have been suspended due
to the allegedly fraudulent activities occurring at the Company,
and the Chairman of the Board has resigned, after an independent
audit conducted by Deloitte consultants determined that executives
at the Company “deliberately misled its auditors and accountants to
flatter its financial results.”
If you are a member of the Class described above, you have until
December 22, 2014, to move the Court to serve as lead plaintiff, if
you meet certain legal requirements. To be a member of the Class
you need not take any action at this time; you may retain counsel
of your choice or take no action and remain an absent member of the
Class. If wish to learn more about this action, please contact
