SAN FRANCISCO, March 03, 2017 -- Hagens Berman Sobol Shapiro LLP reminds investors in Banc of California (NYSE:BANC) of the March 24, 2017 Lead Plaintiff deadline in the pending securities class action.

or contact Reed Kathrein, who is leading the firm’s investigation, by calling 510-725-3000 or emailing [email protected].
On October 18, 2016, the price of BANC shares fell nearly 29% after SeekingAlpha published a report stating that BANC’s Chief Executive Officer (Steven Sugarman) had undisclosed ties to a criminal convicted of manipulating Gerova Financial Ltd. stock. The Company issued a press release that day stating that BANC’s disinterested directors investigated the matter.
However, the SEC issued a formal order of investigation and a subpoena of the Company on January 12, 2017, after which the Company issued a January 23, 2017 statement admitting it made false statements in its October 18, 2016 release. Hagens Berman is currently investigating the extent of these false statements.
“The relationship between BANC’s senior executives and an admitted financial criminal is obviously information any reasonable shareholder would want to know before investing in a company’s stock,” said Hagens Berman partner Reed Kathrein.

Under the new SEC whistleblower program, whistleblowers who provide original information may receive rewards totaling up to 30 percent of any successful recovery made by the SEC.
