According to the Complaint, the Company made false and misleading statements to the market. Avon developed a plan not disclosed to investors to loosen its credit terms in Brazil, to recruit new representatives in its largest market. The Company did not increase its allowance for doubtful accounts despite putting the credit loosening scheme in place. Based on these facts, the Company’s public statements were false and materially misleading throughout the class period. When the market learned the truth about Avon, investors suffered damages.
Join the case to recover your losses.
