NEW YORK, Oct. 15, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP, a leading national securities law firm, is investigating potential securities fraud at Tesco PLC ("Tesco" or the "Company") (OTC:TSCDY).
The investigation focuses on whether the Company and its executives violated federal securities laws by making false and misleading statements and/or failing to disclose material facts regarding its business and operations.
On September 22, 2014, Tesco issued a press release disclosing that the Company is investigating the overstatement of its profit forecast for 2015 by approximately $408.8 million. The press release issued by the Company acknowledged that its most recent profit forecast was overestimated as a result of an accounting error related to revenue that was booked early and delayed recognition of costs. The Company also disclosed that at least four senior executives have been suspended pending the conclusion of the Company's investigation.
When the adverse information from the September 22, 2014 press release entered the market, Tesco's stock price dropped $1.68 per share, or nearly 15%, to close at $9.61 per share on September 22, 2014.
