NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP, a leading national securities law firm, reminds investors in Wins Finance Holdings, Inc. (“Wins” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ:WINS) of the June 5, 2017 deadline to seek the role of lead plaintiff in a federal securities class action lawsuit filed against the Company and certain officers.
The lawsuit has been filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York on behalf of all those who purchased Wins securities between October 29, 2015 and March 29, 2017 (the “Class Period”). The case, Dutt v. Wins Finance Holdings, Inc. et al, No. 17-cv-02434 was filed on April 4, 2017.
The lawsuit focuses on whether the Company and its executives violated federal securities laws by engaging in activities that might lead to charges of market manipulation.
Specifically, according to an article published by SeekingAlpha on March 30, 2017, the Company is under investigation by the Securities and Exchange Commission for “market manipulation.” Additionally, the Company misled investors about business operations and the existence of its headquarters locations in New York and Hong Kong in order to gain inclusion on the Russell indexes.
After this information became public, Wins’s share price fell from $280.60 per share on March 29, 2017 to a closing price of $144.99 on March 31, 2017—a $135.61 or a 48.33% drop.
