LOS ANGELES--()--Glancy Prongay & Murray LLP (“GPM”) reminds investors of the July 3, 2017 deadline to file a lead plaintiff motion in the class action filed on behalf of investors who purchased Anadarko Petroleum Corporation (“Anadarko” or the “Company”) (NYSE: APC) securities between February 17, 2016 and May 2, 2017, inclusive (the “Class Period”).

To obtain information or participate in the class action, please visit the Anadarko page on our website at http://www.glancylaw.com/case/anadarko-petroleum-corporation.

On April 26, 2017, the Company disclosed that it was shutting in all vertical wells across the counties in northeast Colorado in response to a home explosion and fire in Firestone, Colorado, that occurred on April 17, 2017. The Company stated that the wells would remain shut in until the its field personnel could conduct inspections and testing of the associated equipment. On this news, shares of Anadarko fell $2.84 per share, to close at $57.12 per share on April 27, 2017, thereby injuring investors.

The complaint filed in this class action alleges that, throughout the class period, Defendants issued materially false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (i) Anadarko's maintenance and safety protocols in respect to certain of its vertical wells were inadequate; (ii) due to the foregoing shortcomings, these wells were at an increased risk of explosion; and (iii) that as a result of the foregoing, Anadarko's public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times.
