NEW YORK, January 13, 2017 – Bragar Eagel & Squire, P.C. announces that a class action lawsuit has been filed in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey on behalf of all persons or entities who acquired Fenix Parts, Inc. (NASDAQ: FENX) securities between May 14, 2015 and October 12, 2016 (the “Class Period”).
The Complaint alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) Fenix had an inadequate inventory valuation methodology, (2) Fenix had an inadequate methodology to calculate goodwill impairment, and (3) Fenix was engaging and/or had engaged in conduct that would result in an SEC investigation. As a result, Defendants’ statements about Fenix’s business, operations, and prospects were materially false and misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis throughout the Class Period.
On September 10, 2015, the Street Sweeper published an article focusing on Fenix’s “[m]essy financials, inability to file timely financial reports, and a Nasdaq deficiency notice.” Following this news, Fenix shares declined $1.12 per share on September 10, 2015 to close at $8.47.
On August 16, 2016, Fenix Parts filed a notification of late filing of its Form 10-Q for the second quarter of 2016 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The Company said the delay was due to a “recent change in its auditors.” On October 13, 2016, Fenix Parts filed a Form 8-K with the SEC, stating that since it failed to timely file its Form 10-Q for the second quarter of 2016, NASDAQ issued it a notice of delisting. The Company also announced that it received a subpoena from the SEC requiring production of documents relating to its recent change of auditors, its previously announced business combinations, related goodwill impairment charge, effectiveness of internal controls over financial reporting, and internal valuation methodology. Following this news, Fenix shares declined $0.45 per share on October 13, 2016 to close at $3.42.
