According to the
Complaint, the Company made false and misleading statements to the market. Live
Ventures used an artificially low share count to boost its earnings per share
for fiscal year 2016 by 40%. In fact, the Company’s earnings for 2016 were just
$6.33 per share. The same year, the Company overstated pre-tax income including
$915,500 in “other income.” The Company’s acquisition of ApplianceSmart did not
close in Q1 2017, and using an acquisition date of December 30, 2017 did not
follow GAAP. Between fiscal year 2016 and 2018, the Company’s CEO received
compensation that was 94% higher than what was disclosed to investors. Based on
these facts, the Company’s public statements were false and materially
misleading throughout the class period. When the market learned the truth about
Live Ventures, investors suffered damages.
