NEW ORLEANS, Aug. 9, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Former Attorney General of Louisiana, Charles C. Foti, Jr., Esq., a partner at the law firm of Kahn Swick & Foti, LLC ("KSF"), announces that KSF has commenced an investigation into Honeywell International Inc. (NYSE: HON).
On August 23, 2018, the Company disclosed that its asbestos-related liability was estimated to be $1,083 million higher than previous estimates. Then, on October 19, 2018, the Company revealed that the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") was investigating its accounting practices for asbestos-related liabilities. Thereafter, the Company and certain of its executives were sued in a securities class action lawsuit charging them with failing to disclose material information during the Class Period, violating federal securities law, which remains ongoing.
Recently, on July 18, 2019, the Company disclosed that it is under investigation by U.S. and Brazilian authorities focusing on "compliance with the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and similar Brazilian laws" and that "[t]he DOJ and the SEC are also examining a matter involving a foreign subsidiary's prior engagement of Unaoil S.A.M. in Algeria."
KSF's investigation is focusing on whether Honeywell's officers and/or directors breached their fiduciary duties to Honeywell's shareholders or otherwise violated state or federal laws.
