According to the complaint the plaintiff alleges on behalf of investors who purchased common stock of Deer Consumer Products Inc (NASDAQ: DEER) from March 2, 2010 to March 21, 2011, that Goldman Kurland and Mohidin LLP falsely stated that Deer Consumer Products Inc’s financial statements in its 2009 and 2010 10-Ks comported with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles while in reality Deer Consumer Products Inc’s revenues were overstated.
The plaintiff says that on March 9, 14, and 21, 2011, analyst Alfred Little issued a series of reports disclosing defendants' alleged fraud, which caused the stock price to drop, damaging investors.
Shares of Deer Consumer Products Inc (NASDAQ: DEER) declined from over $11 in May 2011 to as low as $0.13 on March 8, 2013.
