According to the complaint, throughout the class period General Cable failed to disclose that: (a) the Company had violated the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act by paying millions of dollars in bribes to officials in foreign countries in order to secure business; (b) General Cable’s revenues were in part the product of illegal conduct, and as such, subject to disgorgement and unlikely to be sustainable; and (c) as a result, the Company would be subjected to significant regulatory scrutiny and financial penalties.
General Cable revealed it agreed to pay $82.3 million to resolve the investigation into inappropriate payments on December 29, 2016. The Department of Justice stated that “between 2002 and 2013, General Cable subsidiaries paid approximately $13 million to third-party agents and distributors, a portion of which was used to make unlawful payments to obtain business, ultimately netting the Company approximately $51 million in profits.”
