BENSALEM, Pa., Nov. 06, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Law Offices of Howard G. Smith reminds investors of the upcoming December 23, 2019 deadline to file a lead plaintiff motion in the class action filed on behalf of investors who purchased Infosys Limited (“Infosys” or the “Company”) (NYSE: INFY) securities between July 7, 2018 and October 20, 2019, inclusive (the “Class Period”).
Investors suffering losses on their Infosys investments are encouraged to contact the Law Offices of Howard G. Smith to discuss their legal rights in this class action at 888-638-4847 or by email to [email protected].
On October 21, 2019, Infosys disclosed that it had received whistleblower complaints alleging “unethical practices” by the Company’s management to inappropriately boost short-term revenue and profit. Moreover, the complaints alleged that the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), Salil Parekh, bypassed reviews and approvals of large contracts to avoid accounting scrutiny.
On this news, the Company’s share price fell $1.28, or over 12%, to close at $9.29 per share on October 21, 2019, thereby injuring investors.
The complaint filed in this class action alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and/or misleading statements, as well as failed to disclose material adverse facts about the Company’s business, operations, and prospects. Specifically, Defendants failed to disclose to investors: (1) that the Company improperly recognized revenues to inflate short-term profits; (2) that the Company’s CEO, Salil Parekh, bypassed reviews and approvals for large deals to avoid accounting scrutiny; (3) that management pressured the Company’s finance team to hide information from auditors and the Company’s Board of Directors; and (4) that as a result, defendants’ statements about its business, operations, and prospects, were materially false and misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis at all relevant times.
If you purchased Infosys securities during the Class Period, you may move the Court no later than December 23, 2019 to ask the Court to appoint you as lead plaintiff if you meet certain legal requirements. To be a member of the class action 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 action.
