or contact Reed Kathrein, who is leading the firm’s investigation, by calling 510-725-3000 or emailing [email protected].
The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) unearthed evidence of an illegal Dakota stock manipulation scheme whereby the defendants secretly wielded control of Dakota; issued millions of shares of stock to themselves, family, and friends; extensively sold and purchased Dakota stock; caused Dakota’s price to skyrocket to over $11 per share; and reaped millions of dollars for themselves in the process.
One of the defendants, Michael Reger (the recently fired CEO and Chairman of Northern Oil and Gas), opted to settle the SEC’s charges against him for nearly $8 million.
After the defendants’ manipulation scheme, Dakota’s stock price steadily declined to pennies per share and was delisted a few months ago.
“The SEC’s allegations are quite specific, quoting text messages and other evidence that support the securities class action,” said Hagens Berman Partner Reed Kathrein.
Whistleblowers: Persons with non-public information regarding Dakota should consider their options to help in the investigation or take advantage of the SEC Whistleblower program. 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. For more information, call Reed Kathrein at 510-725-3000 or email [email protected].
