LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Glancy Prongay & Murray LLP (“GPM”) announces an investigation on behalf of Rent-A-Center, Inc. (“Rent-A-Center” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: RCII) concerning the Company and its officers’ possible violations of federal securities laws.
The investigation concerns whether the Company misled investors regarding its sales and profitability following issues arising out of Rent-A-Center’s point of sale systems (“POS”). Despite assurances by the Company on July 28, 2016 that its POS was fixed and could accommodate the Company’s future sales process, on October 11, 2016, the Company announced it was experiencing issues with its POS that would negatively impact Rent-A-Center’s sales. On this news the Company shares fell substantially in value.
