June 27, 2018 - An investor in shares of Gogo Inc (NASDAQ: GOGO) filed a lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois over alleged violations of Federal Securities Laws by Gogo Inc in connection with certain allegedly false and misleading statements made between February 27, 2017 and May 7, 2018.
According to the complaint the plaintiff alleges on behalf of purchasers of Gogo Inc (NASDAQ: GOGO) common shares between February 27, 2017 and May 7, 2018, that the defendants violated Federal Securities Laws.
More specifically, the plaintiff claims that between February 27, 2017 and May 7, 2018, the defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that Gogo Inc’s 2Ku antenna had more reliability issues than the public was led to believe, that Gogo Inc’s 2Ku antennas required costly installation and remediation challenges or required replacement due to deicing fluids from planes infiltrating the 2Ku system as well as manufacturing and software issues, that consequently, Gogo Inc would not be able to meet its previously issued 2018 guidance, and that as a result, the company’s financial statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times.
