On March 1, 2018, WageWorks announced “it is delaying its Annual Report on Form 10K for the year ended December 31, 2017 and its financial results and associated conference call for the fourth quarter of 2017.”
This news drove the price of WageWorks shares down $9.75, or nearly 19%, to close at $42.70 on March 1, 2018.
The next day, Defendants explained the Company’s audit committee is investigating WageWorks’s revenue recognition during fiscal 2016 and the investigation may result “in the identification of other accounting issues, further material weaknesses, and/or require the restatement of the Company’s financial statements for previous periods.”
In addition, SEC filings show WageWorks’s CEO sold approximately $34 million of his shares during June 2017.
“We’re focused on Defendants’ compliance with generally accepted accounting principles, whether the CEO’s sales were improper, and investors’ losses,” said Hagens Berman partner Reed Kathrein.
Whistleblowers: Persons with non-public information regarding WageWorks should consider their options to help in the investigation or take advantage of the SEC Whistleblower program. Under the new program, whistleblowers who provide original information may receive rewards totaling up to 30 percent of any successful recovery made by the SEC.
