The investigation concerns whether Oracle and certain of its officers and/or directors have violated Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
On June 1, 2016, post-market, media outlets reported that Oracle's former senior finance manager had sued the Company for allegedly terminating her for complaining about improper accounting practices in Oracle's cloud services business. In a complaint filed in U.S. District Court in San Francisco, the former executive, Svetlana Blackburn, accused Oracle's upper management of trying to push her to "fit square data into round holes" to make Oracle Cloud Services' results look better. Blackburn's lawsuit accused Oracle of violating the anti-retaliation provisions of the federal Sarbanes-Oxley corporate governance and Dodd-Frank financial reform laws and alleged that Blackburn was terminated on October 15, 2015, just one month after the alleged wrongdoing began, and two months after she received a positive performance review.
On this news, Oracle stock has fallen as much as $1.94, or 4.82%, to $38.32 during intraday trading on June 2, 2016.
