RADNOR, Pa.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Kaskela Law LLC reminds Kulicke & Soffa Industries, Inc. (“Kulicke & Soffa” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: KLIC) investors that a class action lawsuit has been filed on behalf of investors who purchased or acquired the Company’s securities between November 16, 2017 and May 10, 2018, inclusive (the “Class Period”).
DEADLINE NOTICE: Investors who purchased Kulicke & Soffa securities during the Class Period may, no later than July 10, 2018, seek to be appointed as a lead plaintiff representative of the investor class. Kulicke & Soffa investors are encouraged to contact Kaskela Law LLC (D. Seamus Kaskela, Esq.) at (484) 258 – 1585 or (888) 715 – 1740 to discuss their legal rights and options with respect to this action. Additional information about this action may also be found at www.kaskelalaw.com/case/kulicke-soffa.
On May 10, 2018, Kulicke & Soffa disclosed that it had “learned of certain unauthorized transactions by a senior finance employee of the Company,” and that the Company’s “previously issued consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2017 can no longer be relied upon due to the misstated warranty accruals made in prior periods.”
Following this news, shares of the Company’s stock declined $1.80 per share, or over 7.5%, to close on May 11, 2018 at $21.99, on heavy trading volume.
The shareholder class action complaint alleges that the defendants made false and misleading statements and/or failed to disclose to investors that certain of the Company’s financial statements “could no longer be relied upon due to misstated warranty accruals.” The complaint further alleges that, as a result of the foregoing, investors purchased Kulicke & Soffa’s securities at artificially inflated prices during the Class Period and sustained investment losses following the Company’s May 10, 2018 disclosures.
