New York, New York--(Newsfile Corp. - September 8, 2024) - Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP, a leading national securities law firm, is investigating potential claims against CAE Inc. ("CAE" or the "Company") (NYSE: CAE) and reminds investors of the September 16, 2024 deadline to seek the role of lead plaintiff in a federal securities class action that has been filed against the Company.
Faruqi & Faruqi is a leading national securities law firm with offices in New York, Pennsylvania, California and Georgia. The firm has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for investors since its founding in 1995. See www.faruqilaw.com.
As detailed below, the complaint alleges that the Company and its executives violated federal securities laws by making false and/or misleading statements and/or failing to disclose that: (1) several of CAE's pre-COVID fixed-price Defense contracts had incurred severe cost overruns due to supply chain and labor issues - as the segment was significantly impacted by the pandemic - which dented the segment's profit and operating margin; and (2) CAE failed to successfully reduce hard costs and achieve a sufficient level of operational efficiency, particularly with respect to such contracts, necessitating a re-baselining of the Defense business and significant associated charges.
On August 10, 2022, the Company announced $28.9 million in unfavorable contract profit adjustments involving two fixed-price contracts. On this news, the price of CAE stock declined $4.32 per share, or more than 16%, from $25.80 per share on August 9, 2022, to $21.48 per share on August 10, 2022.
On November 14, 2023, CAE stated that certain legacy contracts continued to be plagued by cost overruns. CAE revealed that, within the Defense segment, the Company planned to "retir[e] legacy contracts, which have been most affected by inflationary pressures." On this news, the price of CAE stock declined $0.85 per share, or nearly 4%, from $21.92 per share on November 13, 2023, to $21.07 per share on November 14, 2023.
