A class action has been filed against Interlink Electronics Inc. (LINK), certain of its officers and directors by stockholders who purchased the company's common stock between April 24, 2003 and November 1, 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.
Several purported shareholder class action lawsuits have been filed against Interlink Electronics Inc. and certain of the Company's executive officers charging the defendants with violations of federal securities laws. Among other things, plaintiff claims that defendants' material omissions and dissemination of materially false and misleading statements concerning Interlink's financial performance caused the Company's stock price to become artificially inflated, inflicting damages on investors. Interlink develops, manufactures, markets, and sells intuitive interface devices and components, such as wireless remote controls, for business and home applications. The Complaint alleges that defendants made repeated Class Period representations concerning the Company's performance and prospects which were materially false and misleading as a result of the Company's improper accounting practices and weak accounting controls.
The complaint further alleges that on or around March 9, 2005, Interlink publicly announced it would restate its financial results for the first three quarters of 2004 to correct several instances of improper accounting. Then, on November 2, 2005, Interlink shocked investors by announcing it was again restating its financial statements -- this time for all of 2003 and 2004 and for the first two quarters of 2005 -- wiping out previously reported earnings. This news sent Interlink shares plummeting in value by 40%.
