Checkpoint Systems Accused of Issuing Misleading Financial Information

According to the complaint, in 2015, Checkpoint Systems filed several Form 10-Qs and a Form 10-K with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), containing detailed information regarding anticipated 2015 results, income tax provisions, and other financial statements. The filings also stated that the company had adequate internal controls in place to ensure the accuracy of its financial results. The complaint alleges these filings were fraudulently disclosed to investors as an accurate reflection of the company's financial status, when in fact, they were false.

After the market closed on November 3, 2015, Checkpoint Systems filed a Form 8-K with the SEC, admitting that it discovered financial statement errors attributable to the accounting for its quarterly income tax provision. It stated that investors should no longer rely upon the company's previously issued financial statements and any earnings releases or other company communications relating to those periods. The following day, the company filed restated financial reports for the affected time periods. On this news, Checkpoint Systems' stock price plummeted, falling by $1.73 per share, or more than 22%, to close at $5.97 per share on November 4, 2015.
