TriNet Misrepresents Its Financial Condition
According to the complaint, TriNet issued misleading statements regarding its financial condition, as well as its quarterly and year-end revenue and earnings outlook for fiscal 2014 and 2015. Specifically, TriNet's claims analysis and forecasting processes did not account for historical claims trends. Further, the company failed to disclose that it was experiencing growing claims trends in medical and workers compensation that negatively affected its business prospects. As a result of TriNet's misrepresentations and omissions, its stock traded at artificially inflated prices, reaching a high of $37.88 per share on March 3, 2015.
On May 5, 2014, TriNet issued a press release announcing positive outcomes for its first quarter fiscal 2014 financial results. However, on March 3, 2015, the company announced that its financial results missed revenue and income expectations due to an increase in large medical claims. Then, on May 5, 2015, TriNet officials held a conference call explaining that the workers compensation accruals negatively affected the company's results, and that it was reducing its annual outlook by $10 million. Further, on August 3, 2015, the company reported financial results that missed both revenue and earnings per share estimates due to another increase in high-volume medical claims. Following this disclosure, TriNet's stock price declined by $10.36 per share, or 38%, to close at $16.33 per share on August 4, 2015.
