Investor Alert: Kaplan Fox Informs Investors That Certain Claims Against American Renal Associates Holdings May Expire On April 20, 2019
NEW YORK, April 15, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Kaplan Fox & Kilsheimer LLP (www.kaplanfox.com) is investigating claims on behalf of investors of American Renal Associates Holdings, Inc. ("American Renal" or the "Company"), a company that through its subsidiaries owns and operates kidney dialysis centers.
On April 20, 2016, American Renal sold 7.5 million shares at $22 per share for gross proceeds of $165 million in the Company's initial public offering ("IPO"). Certain claims relating to the IPO may expire on April 20, 2019 and your rights may be affected. Contact us immediately to determine if you are affected.
On November 9, 2018, American Renal filed a Form 10-Q with the SEC in which the Company disclosed that in October 2018, SEC staff "requested that the Company voluntarily provide documents and information relating to certain revenue recognition, collections and related matters."
Following this news, shares of American Renal fell $0.74 per share, over 4%, to close at $16.76 per share the next trading day, November 12, 2018.
On March 8, 2019, American Renal announced that it was delaying the filing of its annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018, as well as the issuance of its earnings release for the fourth quarter and full year 2018. American Renal also reported that its Audit Committee review was continuing and, with the assistance of its advisors, that its Audit Committee was examining reserve computations and other accounting practices that could have an impact on accounts receivable and revenue for fiscal year 2018, as well as previously reported fiscal years from 2014 through 2017.
Following this news, American Renal's shares fell $2.05 per share, about 16.4%, to close at $10.46 per share on March 8, 2019.
Then, on March 27, 2019, after the market closed, the Company announced the resignation of its CFO, and that American Renal would restate its financial results for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2014 through December 31, 2018, which includes financials that preceded the IPO.
Following this news, shares of American Renal fell $3.69 per share, or 38%, to close at $6.01 per share on March 28, 2019, more than 72% below the $22 per share IPO price.
A complaint has been filed in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey against the Company and certain executives asserting claims on behalf of investors that purchased American Renal securities between August 10, 2016 and March 27, 2019. The lead plaintiff deadline for that case is May 28, 2019.
Additionally, claims under the Securities Act of 1933 relating to the Company's IPO can be asserted. However, these claims may be lost if they are not asserted before April 20, 2019. Therefore, shareholders are encouraged to contact Kaplan Fox to learn more as soon as possible.
