The Complaint alleges that during the Class Period, defendants issued materially false and misleading statements regarding the Company's business and financial results. Defendants caused the Company to fail to properly account for its bad debt expense and timely write down its impaired goodwill. As a result of defendants' false and misleading statements, RH Donnelley's stock traded at artificially inflated prices during the Class Period, trading as high as $66.67 in July 2007. However, beginning in February 2008, defendants began to acknowledge problems in the Company's operations and with its financial results. On March 12, 2009, RH Donnelley announced that it had retained a financial advisor to assist in the evaluation of its capital structure, including various balance sheet restructuring alternatives. Then, on May 29, 2009, RH Donnelley filed for bankruptcy. The stock now trades at around six cents per share.
