According to the lawsuit, defendants throughout the Class Period made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) Dick’s Sporting Goods had overstated its adjusted EBITDA amounts; (2) accordingly, Dick’s Sporting Goods lacked effective internal controls; and (3) as a result of the foregoing, Dick’s Sporting Goods public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times.

On May 12, 2017, Dick’s Sporting Goods revealed that a “computation error resulted in a $23.4 million overstatement of Adjusted EBITDA amounts for both the 13 weeks and 52 weeks ended January 28, 2017.” On this news, shares of Dick’s Sporting Goods fell $2.62 per share or over 5% over the following two trading days to close at $47.57 per share on May 15, 2017, damaging investors.
