The filed Complaint alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that:
- Kingold used fake gold as collateral to fraudulently secure loans;
- consequently, the Company would face creditor lawsuits and be delisted from the Shanghai Gold Exchange; and
- as a result, defendants' statements about its business, operations, and prospects, were materially false and misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis at all relevant times.
On June 29, 2020, multiple news outlets reported that Kingold may have used counterfeit gold as collateral to secure loans from more than a dozen Chinese financial institutions, reporting that at least some of 83 tons of gold bars used as collateral turned out to be nothing but gilded copper.
On this news, Kingold's stock price fell $0.27 per share, or 24.11%, to close at $0.85 per share on June 29, 2020.
