SAN FRANCISCO -- (Business Wire)
Hagens Berman Sobol Shapiro LLP, an investor-rights law firm, is
investigating alleged accounting inaccuracies and potential harm to
investors of L-3 Communications Holdings Inc. (NYSE: LLL) (“L-3” or “the
Company”) and welcomes persons with knowledge of the irregularities as
well as investors who purchased L-3 stock and who have sustained
significant losses to contact Hagens Berman Partner Reed Kathrein, who
is leading the firm’s investigation, by calling 510-725-3000, emailing L3@hbsslaw.com
or visiting http://hb-securities.com/investigations/L3.
According to news published by
Wall Street Journal affiliate MarketWatch, on July 31, 2014,
L-3 disclosed “accounting irregularities” linked to aerospace and
defense contracts running from 2010 to January 2015. The article said
the project “overstates sales and cost overruns and alleged ‘misconduct
[that] included concealment from L-3’s corporate staff and external
auditors.’”
In response, L-3 stated that accounting problems were detected
internally and would entail a review of the company’s entire aerospace
segment, adding that the problems were isolated.
“We understand L-3 is claiming that the fraud is isolated, but we invite
persons with actual knowledge of what was known by senior management to
contact us,” said Mr. Kathrein. “Our firm intends to find out exactly
what L-3 management knew, and encourages individuals to contact our
offices with any information that may help us determine whether a
securities fraud class action is appropriate.”
Upon the publishing of the MarketWatch news story, L-3 shares dropped
roughly 15 percent on July 31, 2014 from $119.62 per share to $100.29
per share. As of mid-day July 31, 2014, the stock was trading around
$101 per share.
Persons with non-public information regarding L-3 should consider their
options to help in the investigation or take advantage of the SEC
Whistleblower program. Under the SEC Whistleblower program,
whistleblowers who provide original information may receive rewards
totaling up to 30 percent of any successful recovery made by the SEC.
For more information, call Reed Kathrein at 510-725-3000 or email L3@hbsslaw.com.
