The lawsuit alleges: Baxter International Inc. made materially false and/or misleading statements throughout the class period and/or failed to disclose that: (1) certain intra-Company transactions, undertaken for the purpose of generating foreign exchange gains and losses, used foreign exchange rate conventions that were not in accordance with GAAP and enabled intra-Company transactions to be undertaken after the related exchange rates were already known; (2) the Company lacked effective internal control over financial reporting; (3) as a result, the Company's financial statements were misstated and would likely require correction or amendment; (4) due to the Company's internal investigation, Baxter would not be able to file its quarterly report for the period ending September 30, 2019, with the SEC on Form 10-Q in a timely manner; and (5) as a result of the foregoing, Defendants' statements about the Company's business and operations lacked a reasonable basis.

Mohawk Industries, Inc. (NYSE:MHK)
MHK Lawsuit on behalf of:
investors who purchased April 28, 2017 - July 25, 2019
Lead Plaintiff Deadline: March 3, 2020
Join the action: https://www.zlk.com/pslra-1/mohawk-industries-inc-loss-form?wire=3&prid=5196

The filed complaint alleges that, faced with slowing demand for its conventional flooring products, the Company engaged in a scheme to inflate its revenues and earnings by booking fictitious sales of those products. This practice is known as channel stuffing and was used by Mohawk to hide severely declining demand for conventional flooring products. Throughout the Class Period, Defendants made false and/or misleading statements about Mohawk's sales growth and the demand for the Company's conventional flooring products. Defendants also reassured investors about Mohawk's increasing accounts receivable and inventory levels by falsely attributing those increases to external factors like rising raw material costs and inflation. As a result of these misrepresentations, shares of Mohawk's common stock traded at artificially inflated prices during the Class Period.
