Healthcare Services Group, based in Bensalem, Pennsylvania, engages in the management, administrative, and operating services to the housekeeping, laundry, linen, facility maintenance, and dietary service departments to nursing homes, retirement complexes, rehabilitation centers, and hospitals in the United States.

The complaint alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants failed to disclose that (1) Healthcare Services Group was strategically rounding its quarterly earnings per share (“EPS”) upward for more than a decade, thus misrepresenting the Company’s financial condition throughout the Class Period; (2) the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) had written to the Company in November 2017 to inquire into its EPS rounding practices; and (3) the SEC delivered a subpoena to the Company in March 2018 to produce documents in connection with its calculation of EPS.

On March 4, 2019, in a Form 8-K filed with the SEC, Healthcare Services Group disclosed it had received a letter in November 2017 from the SEC regarding an inquiry into the Company’s EPS calculation practices and requesting that the Company voluntarily provide certain information and documents relating to its EPS rounding and reporting practices. The Company further disclosed it also had received a subpoena in March 2018 from the SEC in connection with those matters and had been providing information and documents to the SEC.

Following those disclosures, the Company’s stock price fell by $4.96 per share, or 13.14%, to close at $32.78 on March 4, 2019.
