BENSALEM, Pa.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Law Offices of Howard G. Smith announces an investigation on behalf of Sequential Brands Group Inc. (“Sequential” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: SQBG) investors concerning the Company’s possible violations of federal securities laws.

On December 11, 2020, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) filed a complaint against Sequential for violations of the federal securities laws for failure to timely impair its goodwill as required by generally accepted accounting principles.

On this news, the Company’s stock price fell $2.03, or 11%, to close at $16.20 per share on December 11, 2020, thereby injuring investors.

If you purchased Sequential securities, have information or would like to learn more about these claims, or have any questions concerning this announcement or your rights or interests with respect to these matters, please contact Howard G.
