Ixia Accused of Improperly Recognizing Revenue

Shares of Ixia fell $1.94, or 9%, to close at $18.37 on April 4, 2013, following Ixia's announcement that it identified an error in the company's revenue recognition practices, requiring the company to restate its financial results for the 2010 and 2011 fiscal years and each fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2011 through September 30, 2012.  Ixia's shares fell an additional $0.78 or, 5%, after Ixia announced on October 24, 2013, that its President, CEO, and member of the board of directors, Victor Alston, resigned after it had been determined that he had misstated his academic credentials, age and early employment history.

According to the complaint, Ixia made false and misleading statements and/or failed to disclose material adverse facts about the company's business prospects and financial condition.  In particular, the complaint alleges that, throughout the Class Period, Ixia improperly recognized revenues related to its warranty and software maintenance contracts.  In addition, the complaint alleges that Ixia failed to maintain adequate internal and financial controls leading the company to release false and misleading statements.
