On June 5, 2019, Eros’s Indian subsidiary’s credit rating was downgraded to “Default” by India’s second-largest credit ratings agency over concerns of “ongoing delays/default in debt servicing due to slowdown in collection from debtors.” On this news, Eros’s stock price fell $3.59, or nearly 49%, to close at $3.71 on June 6, 2019.
Then, on June 7, 2019, an article published by Hindenburg Research explained that the credit downgrade was due to “multiple undisclosed related-party transactions that appear designed to hide receivables,” and that “a significant portion of Eros’s receivables don’t exist.” On this news, Eros’s stock price fell an additional $0.41, or nearly 12%, to close at $3.30 on June 7, 2019.
