Kuznicki Law PLLC notifies investors that a class action has commenced in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California on behalf of shareholders of Super Micro Computer, Inc. who purchased shares between February 2, 2021 and August 28, 2024.
SMCI and certain of its executives are charged with failing to disclose material information during the Class Period, violating federal securities laws.
On August 27, 2024, Hindenburg Research released a report entitled “Super Micro: Fresh Evidence of Accounting Manipulation, Sibling Self-Dealing and Sanctions Evasion at this AI High Flyer” that detailed its “3-month investigation” which uncovered “glaring accounting red flags, evidence of undisclosed related party transactions, sanctions and expert control failures, and customer issues,” and that the Company continued to engage in channel-stuffing despite being charged by the SEC for doing so. On this news, the price of SMCI’s shares fell from a closing price of $562.51 per share on August 26, 2024 to $443.49 per share on August 28, 2024.
