SHAREHOLDER ALERT: Pomerantz Law Firm Investigates Claims On Behalf of LPL Financial Holdings Inc. - LPLA
NEW YORK, March 25, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Pomerantz LLP is investigating claims on behalf of investors of LPL Financial Holdings Inc. ("LPL" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: LPLA). Such investors are advised to contact Robert S. Willoughby at [email protected] or 888-476-6529, ext. 9980.
The investigation concerns whether LPL and certain of its officers and/or directors have violated Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
On February 11, 2016, LPL announced its fourth quarter and full year 2015 financial results, including adjusted earnings per share of $0.37 per share, well below consensus analyst estimates of $0.51 per share. The Company also revealed disappointing revenues, primarily as a result of dramatically lower commission revenues and revenues from alternative investments, as well as higher-than-expected expenses for the quarter.
As a result of this news, the price of LPL common stock dropped $8.76 per share to close at $16.50 per share on February 12, 2016, a one-day decline of nearly 35%.
