On October 30, 2018, Evoqua announced poor preliminary financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended September 30, 2018. Evoqua disclosed that the underperformances were "primarily due to acquisition system integration issues, supply chain disruptions influenced by tariffs and an extended delay on a large aquatics project." On this news, shares of Evoqua fell $4.78 per share, or 34.64%, to close at $9.02 on October 30, 2018, thereby injuring investors.
The complaint filed in this class action alleges that throughout the Class Period, the defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (i) Evoqua failed to successfully integrate its prior acquisitions; (ii) Evoqua was experiencing supply chain disruptions influenced by tariffs and an extended delay on a large aquatics project; and (iii) as a result of the foregoing, Evoqua’s public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times.
