ADTRAN, Inc.  (ADTN) Investigation:

The firm’s investigation concerns whether ADTRAN engaged in fraudulent accounting.

On July 17, 2019, ADTRAN announced “preliminary” earnings for 2Q 2019 due to the Company’s assessment of its current and previously reported E&O reserves. This news caused ADTRAN shares to plummet over 23% on July 18, 2019.

Then, on August 12, 2019, ADTRAN disclosed its inability to timely file its quarterly financial report with the SEC. The Company admitted to material weaknesses in its internal control resulting in a misstatement of the Company’s previously reported E&O reserves.

On September 20, 2019, ADTRAN filed its quarterly financial report correcting “misstatement of its excess and obsolete inventory reserves in its previously issued annual and interim financial statements.”

On October 10, 2019, ADTRAN announced “[o]ur revenue this quarter has been significantly impacted by a pause in shipments to a Tier 1 customer in Latin America and the continued slowdown in the spending at an international Tier 1 customer.”  This news caused ADTRAN shares to plummet nearly 26% during intraday trading.

“We’re focused on investors’ losses, whether ADTRAN intentionally misled investors by failing to timely write off unsalable inventory, and whether management’s statements about the Tier 1 customers may have been misleading,” said Reed Kathrein, the Hagens Berman partner leading the investigation.
