According to the Complaint, the Company made false and misleading statements to the market throughout the class period. Akers improperly recognized revenue for the year ending December 2017. Akers did not disclose the extent of the weakness of the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting. This resulted in the Company making materially false and misleading public statements. According to the lawsuit, when accurate information about Akers became apparent in the market, investors suffered damages. The Schall Law Firm represents investors around the world and specializes in securities class action lawsuits and shareholder rights litigation.
