Shareholders Sue Avaya, Inc. Due to Loss of Stock Value

Report Fraud
Case ID: 4286 | Stocks | 05/05/2005

A class action has been filed against Avaya, Inc. (NYSE:AV), certain of its officers and directors by stockholders who purchased the company's common stock between October 05, 2004 and April 19, 2005. The action claims that the defendants violated federal securities laws by issuing a series of material misrepresentations to the market over this time period, thereby artificially inflating the price of the company's securities. The stockholders seek to recover compensatory damages for the loss of value of their stock.

The Complaint alleges that Avaya violated federal securities laws. Specifically, defendants failed to disclose the following: (i) the cost of the integration of Tenovis, a company Avaya had acquired, was much greater than represented and rather than being "accretive" to fiscal 2005 earnings or having a positive financial impact within a short period of time, the acquisition would, in fact, reduce Avaya's earnings by at least $.06 per share during fiscal 2005; (ii) Avaya's changes in its delivery methods of products to market was creating severe disruptions in sales; (iii) Avaya was experiencing a dramatic reduction of demand in its U.S. market; and (iv) and as a result, Avaya had no reasonable basis to project an increase in profits or an increase in revenues of 25-27% for fiscal 2005.

The complaint further alleges that on or around April 19, 2005, Avaya released its financial and operational results for the second quarter of fiscal 2005 and reported revenues and earnings far short of previous guidance and analyst expectations of earnings of $0.17 a share on revenue of $1.29 billion. One analyst at J.P. Morgan called the results "horrid" and cut its rating on the stock to "neutral" from "overweight." On this news, the stock fell more than 25% on April 20, 2005.

The class action lawsuit has been filed behalf of all persons who purchased the publicly traded securities of Avaya, Inc., and all those who acquired Avaya through its acquisitions of Tenovis and RouteScience.
