The suit claims that throughout the Class Period: (a) according to Indian government export documents, Amira fraudulently overstated its Indian-produced basmati rice exports, thereby overstating revenues by at least 24% and 18.7% in FY 2013 and 2014, respectively; (b) Amira concealed that many of its counterparties are secretly related parties, including its largest customer, one of its largest suppliers, a potential counterparty to a $30 million transaction, and over a dozen others; and (c) Amira's CEO used company money to pay his own personal household expenses, including salaries for a personal house manager and a chef for his farmhouse.
The lawsuit alleges that the truth was disclosed on two occasions, on April 3, 2013, causing its stock price to fall to $1.10 by April 5, or almost 20%, from its close on April 2, and on February 9, 2015, causing Amira's stock price to fall $3.45, or almost 26% from its previous close.
