CPI Aero (CVU) Investigation:
The investigation centers on the propriety of CPI Aero's revenue recognition practices and internal controls over financial reporting.
In past quarters, CPI Aero has promoted its streak of posting profits and revenue growth, attributing the superior financial results to "strong operational execution."
But on Feb. 8, 2019, CPI Aero disclosed that its Q3 2018 financial statements could no longer be relied upon due to an "error . . . in the Company's billing process." The error inflated the company's reported revenue and income before provision for income taxes, net income, and EPS.
Then, on Feb. 14, 2020, CPI Aero announced that its financial statements for fiscal year 2018, the last three quarters of 2018, and the first two quarters of 2019 should no longer be relied upon due to errors relating to the Company's recognition of revenue from customer contracts. The Company also disclosed that, contrary to prior representations, CPI Aero maintained ineffective internal control over financial reporting for 2018. CPI Aero further announced the resignation of recently appointed CFO Dan Azmon.
On this news, the CPI share priced dropped nearly 30%.
"We're focused on recovering investors' losses and determining whether CPI Aero's admitted accounting errors were intentional," said Reed Kathrein, the Hagens Berman partner leading the investigation.
