SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 21, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Hagens Berman Sobol Shapiro LLP, a national investor-rights law firm, reminds investors with losses over $50,000 of the upcoming December 28, 2015 lead plaintiff deadline in the securities fraud class action lawsuit filed against TerraForm Global, Inc. (NASDAQ:GLBL) related to misrepresentations made in the Company’s Initial Public Offering.
If you purchased the common stock of TerraForm in its July 31, 2015 IPO, contact Hagens Berman Partner Reed Kathrein, who is leading the firm’s investigation, by calling 510-725-3000, emailing [email protected] or visiting http://hb-securities.com/investigations/GLBL.
The lawsuit was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California against TerraForm, its controlling entity, SunEdison, Inc., the sponsors of TerraForm’s IPO, and certain of TerraForm’s senior executives and directors who signed the July 31, 2015 Registration Statement.
The complaint alleges that certain statements made in the offering materials failed to disclose that, at the time of the July 31, 2015 IPO, SunEdison was experiencing unprecedented losses that would be revealed in the days following TerraForm’s IPO. At the time, SunEdison was also experiencing severe liquidity and debt issues that ended its ability to develop projects that they planned to sell to TerraForm. The end result is that TerraForm’s very business model is a non-starter and the growth plans for both TerraForm and SunEdison were unachievable.
The misrepresentations were revealed to the market shortly after the TerraForm IPO closed and have continued. On August 6, 2015, SunEdison reported a loss of $263 million in its second quarter on $455 million of revenue, and debt of nearly $11 billion. On this news, TerraForm’s share price fell $2.39 to close at $11.27 on August 6, 2015. On October 7, 2015, SunEdison said it did not expect to sell any projects to TerraForm through the next year.
