Specifically, defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose: (1) that certain Company employees had devised and carried out a scheme to defraud investors and divert Company funds potentially exceeding $31 million; (2) that the Company's financial statements and corporate bank account balances had been manipulated to conceal the diversion of corporate funds; (3) that, as a result, the Company's financial results were overstated during the Class Period; (4) that the Company's financial results were not prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"); (5) that the Company lacked adequate internal and financial controls; and (6), as a result of the above, that the Company's financial statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times.
