A class action has been filed against Sourcecorp Inc. (Nasdaq: SRCP) and certain of its officers and directors by stockholders who purchased the company's common stock between May 7, 2003 and October 27, 2004.

The stockholder seeks to recover compensatory damages for the loss of value of their stock.

On October 27, 2004, SOURCECORP announced that it was restating previously-issued financial statements for 2003 and the first two quarters of 2004. SOURCECORP disclosed that the Information Management Division of its Information Management and Distribution segment had improperly and prematurely recognized revenue prior to the delivery of contractually required output, and for services which were performed and delivered in excess of the volume and revenue limits set by contract. SOURCECORP will have to adjust its revenues and diluted earnings per share for 2003 by at least $5.4 million and $0.19, respectively, and for the six months ended June 30, 2004, it may have to adjust revenues and diluted earnings per share by at least $2.8 million and $0.10, respectively.
