According to the Complaint, the Company made false and misleading statements to the market. GEO’s COVID-19 response procedures were ineffective. The Company’s failure to maintrain appropriate response procedures placed the residents of its halfway houses at risk. Placing its residents at significant health risk in turn made the Company vulnerable to financial and reputational harm. Based on this news, the Company’s public statements were false and materially misleading throughout the class period. When the market learned the truth about GEO, investors suffered damages.

Join the case to recover your losses.
