LOS ANGELES, CA / ACCESSWIRE / March 27, 2020 / Glancy Prongay & Murray LLP ("GPM") reminds investors of the upcoming May 5, 2020 deadline to file a lead plaintiff motion in the class action filed on behalf of World Wrestling Entertainment, Inc. ("WWE" or "the Company") (NYSE:WWE) investors who purchased securities between February 7, 2019 and February 5, 2020, inclusive (the "Class Period").

If you suffered a loss on your WWE investments or would like to inquire about potentially pursuing claims to recover your loss under the federal securities laws, you can submit your contact information here or contact Charles H. Linehan, of GPM at 310-201-9150, Toll-Free at 888-773-9224, via email shareholders@glancylaw.com or visit our website at www.glancylaw.com to learn more about your rights.

On April 25, 2019, WWE reported that for first quarter 2019, revenue declined year-over-year, notably in the live events and consumer products segments. Though the Company attributed the decline to the absence of certain "Super Stars," several analysts connected the results to difficulties securing a media rights deal for the Middle East and North Africa ("MENA") region with the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

On this news, the Company's share price fell $13.12 per share, or over 13%, to close at $85.38 per share on April 25, 2019, thereby injuring investors.

Then, on October 31, 2019, in connection with the Company's third quarter 2019 financial results, WWE lowered its fiscal 2019 adjusted OIBDA guidance to a range of $180 million to $190 million, stating that "no assurances" could be made that a media rights deal for the MENA region would ever be completed.

On this news, the Company's share price fell $10.40 per share, or over 15%, to close at $65.04 per share on October 31, 2019, thereby injuring investors further.

Then, on January 30, 2020, WWE announced the departures of WWE Co-Presidents George A. Barrios and Michelle D. Wilson.

On this news, the Company's share price fell $13.42 per share, or over 21%, to close at $48.88 per share on January 31, 2020, thereby injuring investors further.

Finally, on February 6, 2020, WWE reported adjusted OIBDA of only $180 million due to the failure to complete a media rights deal for the MENA region.

On this news, the Company's share price fell $4.50 per share, or over 9%, to close at $44.50 per share on February 6, 2020, thereby injuring investors further.

The complaint filed in this class action alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and/or misleading statements, as well as failed to disclose material adverse facts about the Company's business, operations, and prospects. Specifically, Defendants failed to disclose to investors: (1) that they were experiencing rising tension with the Saudi government and a breakdown in negotiations over a renewed broadcasting distribution deal; (2) that the Saudi government and its affiliates had failed to make millions of dollars in payments owed to WWE pursuant to existing contractual commitments between the parties, including at least $60 million owed in connection with the June 2019 Super ShowDown event; (3) that the Orbit Showcase Network ("OSN") had terminated the broadcast of WWE programming in the first quarter of 2019 despite a contractual obligation to continue such broadcasts and this cancellation was symptomatic of a deterioration in the business relationship between the parties; (4) that the OSN had rebuffed efforts to renew a distribution rights agreement on terms acceptable to WWE, and such renewal was unlikely to occur in 2019, if ever; (5) that WWE did not have the ability to expand its operations in the Middle East or within Saudi Arabia as had been represented to investors; (6) that the OSN had refused to restart the broadcast of WWE programming despite a contractual obligation to continue such broadcasts; and (7) as a result, Defendants' public statements were materially false and/or misleading at all relevant times.

BENSALEM, PA / ACCESSWIRE / March 27, 2020 / Law Offices of Howard G. Smith reminds investors of the upcoming April 28, 2020 deadline to file a lead plaintiff motion in the class action filed on behalf of investors who acquired Aaron's, Inc. ("Aaron's" or the "Company") (NYSE:AAN) securities between March 2, 2018 and February 19, 2020, inclusive (the "Class Period").

Investors suffering losses on their Aaron's investments are encouraged to contact the Law Offices of Howard G. Smith to discuss their legal rights in this class action at 888-638-4847 or by email to howardsmith@howardsmithlaw.com.

On February 20, 2020, Aaron's disclosed that its Progressive segment had reached an agreement in principle with the U.S. Federal Trade Commission ("FTC") regarding the July 2018 civil investigative demand, which had sought to determine whether disclosures related to the Company's financial products were in violation of the FTC Act. The proposed agreement required Aaron's to "make a payment of $175 million and enhance certain compliance-related activities, including monitoring, disclosure and reporting requirements."

On this news, the Company's share price fell $10.70 per share, or over 19%, to close at $45.45 per share on February 20, 2020, thereby injuring investors.

The complaint alleges that defendants throughout the Class Period made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose: (1) that Aaron's had inadequate disclosure controls, procedures, and compliance measures; (2) that, consequently, the operations of Aaron's Progressive and AB segments were in violation of the FTC Act and/or relevant FTC regulations; (3) that, consequently, Aaron's earnings from those segments were partially derived from unlawful business practices and were thus unsustainable; (4) the full extent of Aaron's liability regarding the likely negative consequences of all the foregoing on the Company's financial results; and (5) that, as a result, the Company's public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times.

If you purchased Aaron's securities during the Class Period, you may move the Court no later than April 28, 2020 to ask the Court to appoint you as lead plaintiff if you meet certain legal requirements. To be a member of the class action you need not take any action at this time; you may retain counsel of your choice or take no action and remain an absent member of the class action. If you wish to learn more about this class action, or if you have any questions concerning this announcement or your rights or interests with respect to these matters, please contact Howard G.

CALGARY, AB / ACCESSWIRE / March 27, 2020 / Big Dougie Capital Corp. ("Big Dougie") (TSXV:STUV.P) is pleased to announce details concerning its proposed arm's length qualifying transaction involving a proposed business combination or asset acquisition involving Compania Recursos Andina Limitada ("Andina"), a private company incorporated under the laws of Chile, or a joint venture company to be created by Andina ("Newco").

Overview of Andina

Andina holds 100% unencumbered title to 8.7 square kilometres of mineral claims in the Coastal Gold-Copper belt of Region III, Chile (the "Mineral Claims"). These claims contain numerous old mines that exploited high grade gold, copper and cobalt mineralisation from three extensive shear-vein systems. Historic production grades from the old mines range from lows of 5g/t gold, 3% copper and 0.5% cobalt to highs of 65g/t gold, 12% copper and 1.3% cobalt. Historic surface workings on these vein systems are 2 – 15 m wide, extend over 2 – 3 kilometres of strike and to depths of over 180 metres. Mining activities in the area ended in the early 1940s when the main mines were flooded after intense local rainstorms.

Summary of the Proposed Transaction

Big Dougie has entered into a non-binding Letter of Intent with Andina dated March 19, 2020 (the "LOI") pursuant to which Big Dougie and Andina intend to complete a business combination or asset sale (the "Transaction") with the ongoing public company (the "Resulting Issuer") being called "Stuves Mining Inc." Pursuant to the proposed Transaction, Big Dougie or a subsidiary of Big Dougie will acquire the shares of Newco or the Mineral Claims in exchange for the payment of USD $500,000 in cash payable by Big Dougie to Andina or Newco, as the case may be, and the issuance to Andina or Newco, as the case may be, of 50,000,000 common shares of Big Dougie ("Big Dougie Common Shares"). Upon signing of the LOI, the sum of $250,000 shall be payable by Big Dougie to Andina or Newco, as the case may be, with the balance payable at closing of the Transaction. An insider of Big Dougie will be providing funding for payment of the USD $250,000 deposit with the intent of re-paying the deposit by subscribing for Big Dougie Common Shares pursuant to the Private Placement described below. If the Transaction does not close, the repayment of such deposit funds is subject to the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange").

It is intended that the Transaction, when completed, will constitute Big Dougie's "Qualifying Transaction" in accordance with Policy 2.4 of the Exchange. A more comprehensive news release will be issued by Big Dougie disclosing details of the Transaction including, as necessary, financial information respecting Andina, the names and backgrounds of all persons who will constitute insiders of the Resulting Issuer, and information respecting sponsorship, once an agreement has been finalized and certain conditions have been met, including:

i) satisfactory completion of due diligence; and
ii) execution of a definitive agreement.

Shareholder approval is not required with respect to the Transaction under the rules of the Exchange because the Transaction does not constitute a Non-Arm's Length Qualifying Transaction. However, the structure of the Transaction has not yet been finalized so shareholder approval under corporate law may be required. Trading in the Big Dougie Common Shares has been halted and is not expected to resume trading until the Transaction is completed or until the Exchange receives the requisite documentation to resume trading.

Summary of the Proposed Private Placement

Pursuant to the LOI, the parties agree to use their "commercially reasonable efforts" to cause Newco or Big Dougie to complete a private placement (the "Private Placement") of subscription receipts convertible into Big Dougie Common Shares at closing of the Transaction ("Subscription Receipts") at a price per share to be determined in consultation with agents (the "Financing Strike Price") for gross proceeds of a minimum of $750,000 and a maximum of $1,500,000. The proceeds from the Private Placement will be held in trust pending closing of the Transaction. The parties may engage a syndicate of agents to be led by a firm to be determined (the "Agents") to act as agents on a "bought deal" or "best efforts" basis for the Private Placement and if retained would pay a commission to the Agents of up to 7% of the gross proceeds raised by the Agents (including selling group members). The Agents may also be granted that number of broker warrants in the aggregate equal up to 7% of the number of Subscription Receipts sold by the Agents (including selling group members) in the Private Placement, with each broker warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one common share of the Resulting Issuer at a price equal to the Financing Strike Price for a period of 12 months from closing of the Transaction. The commission and broker warrants shall be payable and issuable, respectively, to the Agents (and selling group members, as applicable) upon closing of the Transaction. The commission payable and warrants issuable to the Agents in conjunction with the Private Placement will exclude those subscribers that participate in the Private Placement that fall within the list of names submitted to the Agents by Newco or Big Dougie. Further particulars of the Private Placement will be disseminated in a news release to be issued upon finalization of terms with an agent.

Qualified Person

Mr. Terence Walker, M.Sc., P. Geo, a qualified person within the meaning of National Instrument 43-101 ("QP"), has reviewed and approved the contents of this news release. Mr. Walker has explored the subject mining district in the past. Historic production grades referenced in this news release were taken from private and government reports on the district which are believed to be reliable. . Big Dougie is not relying on the historical information to estimate, nor should the reader infer, that any mineral resource or mineral reserve estimates are being provided herein. The QP has not independently verified the accuracy of the production grades reported herein as verification will require dewatering of the existing shafts and working faces followed by sampling of those old working faces. Alternatively, drilling in the immediate area of the old working faces may be used for verification purposes.

Forward Looking Information

Statements in this press release regarding Big Dougie's business, which are not historical facts, are "forward-looking statements" that involve risks and uncertainties, such as the terms and conditions of the proposed Transaction and the Private Placement as well as the business of Andina. Since forward-looking statements address future events and conditions, by their very nature, they involve inherent risks and uncertainties. Actual results in each case could differ materially from those currently anticipated in such statements. Factors which may cause the actual results and future events to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements, include but are not limited to: inability to access sufficient capital from internal and external sources, and/or inability to access sufficient capital on favourable terms; the labour market generally and the ability to access, hire and retain employees; general business, economic, competitive, political and social uncertainties; and the delay or failure to receive board or regulatory approvals, as applicable. There can be no assurance that such statements will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements and information contained in this news release. Except as required by law, neither Big Dougie nor Andina assume any obligation to update the forward-looking statements of beliefs, opinions, projections, or other factors, should they change, except as required by law.

Completion of the Transaction and the Private Placement are subject to a number of conditions, including but not limited to, execution of binding definitive agreements relating to the Transaction and the Private Placement and satisfaction of conditions precedents thereof (including but not limited to receiving all required shareholder, regulatory and other approvals), Exchange acceptance and if applicable pursuant to Exchange requirements, majority of the minority shareholder approval. Where applicable, the Transaction cannot close until the required shareholder approval is obtained. There can be no assurance that the Transaction will be completed as proposed or at all.

Investors are cautioned that, except as disclosed in the management information circular or filing statement to be prepared in connection with the Transaction, any information released or received with respect to the Transaction may not be accurate or complete and should not be relied upon. Trading in the securities of a capital pool company should be considered highly speculative.

The TSX Venture Exchange Inc. has in no way passed upon the merits of the proposed Transaction and has neither approved nor disapproved the contents of this press release.

WILMINGTON, DE / ACCESSWIRE / March 27, 2020 / Rigrodsky & Long, P.A. reminds shareholders of Cronos Group Inc. ("Cronos" or the "Company") (NASDAQ GS:CRON) of an upcoming deadline involving a securities fraud class action lawsuit commenced against the Company.

R&L filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York on behalf of all persons or entities that purchased the common stock of Cronos between May 9, 2019 and March 2, 2020, inclusive (the "Class Period"), alleging violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 against the Company and certain of its officers (the "Complaint"). If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than May 11, 2020.

If you purchased shares of Cronos during the Class Period and wish to discuss this action or have any questions concerning this notice or your rights or interests, please contact Seth D. Rigrodsky or Timothy J. MacFall at Rigrodsky & Long, P.A., 300 Delaware Avenue, Suite 1220, Wilmington, DE 19801, by telephone at (888) 969-4242, by e-mail at info@rl-legal.com, or at http://rigrodskylong.com/cases-cronos-group-inc.

The Complaint alleges that throughout the Class Period, defendants made materially false and misleading statements, and omitted materially adverse facts, about the Company's business, operations and prospects. As a result of defendants' alleged false and misleading statements, the Company's stock traded at artificially inflated prices during the Class Period.

According to the Complaint, on February 24, 2020, Cronos made a partial, limited disclosure of problems with its financial reporting, announcing that "it will delay its 2019 fourth quarter and full-year earnings release and conference call, previously scheduled for Thursday, February 27, 2020. The Company has had a delay in the completion of its financial statements and will make a further announcement in a subsequent press release to schedule the date and time of the earnings conference call."

On this news, the price of the Company's stock fell from a close of $7.15 (USD) per share on February 21, 2020 to close at $6.37 (USD) per share on February 24, 2020, the next trading day and the day of the announcement.

Then, on March 2, 2020, Cronos issued a press release announcing that it had filed a Form 12b-25 with the SEC, providing the Company a 15-day extension of the due date for filing its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 (the "Form 10-K"). On that same day, the Company also filed a Form 12b-25 with the SEC stating that it would file a Form 10-K with the SEC with fifteen days because "[t]he Company has been unable to complete its financial statements for fiscal 2019 due to a continuing review by the Audit Committee of the Company's Board of Directors, with the assistance of outside counsel and forensic accountants, of several bulk resin purchases and sales of products through the wholesale channel and the appropriateness of the recognition of revenue from those transactions."

On this news, shares of Cronos fell over 11%, closing at $5.32 (USD) per share on March 3, 2020, on heavy trading volume.
