Case Background:
This is a federal securities fraud class action lawsuit on behalf of all persons and entities that purchased or otherwise acquired MGP Ingredients, Inc. (“MGPI”) (NASDAQ: MGPI) common stock between August 2, 2018 and February 26, 2020, inclusive (the “Class Period”).
The complaint alleges that, throughout the Class Period, Defendants made false and misleading statements and/or failed to disclose adverse information concerning MGPI’s business and financial condition. Specifically, the complaint alleges that Defendants failed to disclose that MGPI had not completed any significant sales of its aged whiskey inventory and that MGPI had been unable to sell its aged whiskey at the price premium represented to investors. This materially impaired its ability to negotiate significant sales on favorable contract terms, and as a consequence, Defendants’ full-year 2019 financial guidance lacked a reasonable basis and was materially misleading.
Current Status of Case:
On August 31, 2021, the Court granted Defendant’s Motion to Dismiss. This action has concluded.
