According to the Complaint, Aegean Marine made false and misleading statements to the marketplace. On May 22, 2018, Aegean Marine announced it would undertake a review of its financial reporting. On June 4, 2018, the Company released its initial findings of the review, announcing that, “approximately $200 million of accounts receivable at December 31, 2017 will need to be written off.” The Company added, “transactions that gave rise to the accounts receivable … may have been, in full or in part, without economic substance and improperly accounted for in contravention of the Company’s normal policies and procedures.” As a result, the Company’s financial statements were materially false and misleading throughout the class period and did not accurately reflect the results of business operations and the financial health of Aegean Marine. According to the lawsuit, when accurate information about Aegean Marine became apparent in the market, investors suffered damages.
