January 21, 2010 - An investor in shares of Motorola Inc (NYSE: MOT) filed a lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois against Motorola Inc over alleged violations of Federal Securities Laws in connection with certain allegedly false and misleading statements made between December 6, 2007 through January 22, 2008.

According to the complaint the plaintiff alleges that Motorola Inc (NYSE: MOT) and certain of its current and former officers and directors violated the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 by intentionally and knowingly misstating between December 6, 2007 through January 22, 2008 Motorola Inc's 4Q 07 earnings projections and sales demand for its newly-released RAZR2 mobile handset during the 2007 holiday shopping season.

Then on January 22, 2008, Motorola Inc issued a release reporting Motorola Inc's 4Q 07 financial results, followed by an earnings conference held with the investment community later that day, during which this information was finally disclosed to investors. Significantly, so the lawsuit, Motorola Inc's senior executives expressly conceded that they knew the demand for the RAZR2 was lackluster dating back as early as Thanksgiving 2007 - two weeks before December 6, 2007. Defendants also downgraded their 1Q 08 earnings guidance, so the complaint, and as the market reacted to these disclosures, Motorola Inc shares plummeted 18.8%, or $2.31 per share, to close at $10.01 per share, its lowest level in five years, on unusually high volume.
