Gainey McKenna & Egleston Announces A Class Action Lawsuit Has Been Filed Against Kandi Technologies Group, Inc. (KNDI) Expanding The Class Period

NEW YORK, April 21, 2017 -- Gainey McKenna & Egleston announces that a class action lawsuit has been filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York on behalf of all persons or entities that purchased the securities of Kandi Technologies Group, Inc. (“Kandi” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ:KNDI) between May 12, 2014 through March 13, 2017 (the “Class Period”), alleging violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 against the Company and certain of its officers (the “Complaint”).

The Complaint alleges that Defendants throughout the Class Period made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) certain areas in Kandi’s previously issued financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, and the first three quarters for the year ended December 31, 2016 required adjustment; (2) in turn, Kandi lacked effective controls over financial reporting; and (3) as a result, Defendants’ statements about Kandi’s business, operations, and prospects, were materially false and misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis at all relevant times.

On November 14, 2016, Kandi announced the abrupt resignation of Cheng Wang as its CFO.  On this news, shares of Kandi fell $0.40 per share or over 10% from its previous closing price to close at $3.50 per share on November 14, 2016, damaging investors.  On March 14, 2017, Kandi revealed that its previously issued financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, and the first three quarters for the year ended December 31, 2016 will need to be restated. On this news, shares of Kandi fell $0.30 per share or approximately 7% to close at $4.05 per share on March 14, 2017, further damaging investors.
