NEW YORK, July 11, 2018 – Bragar Eagel & Squire, P.C. is investigating potential claims against Farmland Partners Inc. (NYSE: FPI).  Our investigation concerns whether Farmland has violated the federal securities laws and/or engaged in other unlawful business practices.

On July 11, 2018, Rota Fortunae published a report stating, among other things, that “FPI is artificially increasing revenues by making loans to related-party tenants who round-trip the cash back to FPI as rent; 310% of 2017 earnings could be made-up.”  The report further stated that “FPI has neglected to disclose that the majority of its loans have been made to two members of the management team, including Jesse Hough, CEO Paul Pittman's long-time business partner,” and “[w]e found evidence that strongly supports FPI has significantly overpaid for properties.”  On this news, Farmland's stock fell sharply during intraday trading on July 11, 2018.
