NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwire - November 18, 2009) - Sarraf Gentile LLP announces that a class
action lawsuit was filed against Carter's, Inc. (NYSE : CRI ) and certain of
its officers and directors on behalf of those who purchased Carter's common
stock between April 27, 2004 and November 10, 2009 (the "Class Period").
The complaint alleges violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
The complaint alleges that during the Class Period defendants
misrepresented or failed to disclose that: (a) the Company had reported
certain margin support payments to major wholesale customers in incorrect
periods; (b) as a result, the Company's financial results were overstated
during the Class Period; (c) the Company had failed to properly recognize
revenue in violation of GAAP; (d) the Company lacked adequate internal and
financial controls; and (e) as a result of the above, the Company's
financial statements during the Class Period were materially false and
misleading at all relevant times. The complaint seeks to recover damages
on behalf of those who purchased Carter's common stock during the Class
Period.
