Status: Settled
Labaton Sucharow serves as lead counsel in this securities class action against Celadon Group, Inc. (“Celadon”), a North American truckload freight transportation provider. The Court approved the Settlement on January 16, 2019. The Settlement resolves claims by Court-appointed Lead Plaintiffs the Greater Pennsylvania Carpenters’ Pension Fund and the Arkansas Teacher Retirement System (collectively, the “Institutional Investor Group” or “Lead Plaintiffs”), which have been asserted on behalf of a proposed class against Celadon, Bobby L. Peavler, and Paul A. Will (collectively, “Defendants”).
The operative Complaint alleges that Defendants violated the federal securities laws by making materially false and misleading statements and omissions concerning a variety of accounting issues that have resulted in the Company being delisted from the New York Stock Exchange and being forced to issue a forthcoming restatement of its financials for fiscal years 2014, 2015, 2016, and 2017. The Complaint further alleges that the price of Celadon common stock was artificially inflated as a result of Defendants’ allegedly false and misleading statements, and declined when the truth was revealed.
