Fiat Chrysler Automobiles N.V. (FCAU) Securities Class Action:
According to the complaint, Defendants throughout the Class Period misrepresented and actively concealed that: (1) Fiat and its senior management, including the late CEO Sergio Marchionne, were engaged in an illicit bribery scheme to win concessions from labor union IAW; and (2) due to the scheme, Defendants’ statements about Fiat’s labor costs, receivables, business, operations, and prospects were materially false and misleading.
The complaint alleges that the market learned the truth on November 20, 2019, when General Motors filed an unprecedented racketeering lawsuit against Fiat, accusing Fiat of engaging in a decade-long labor corruption conspiracy with IAW designed to force GM’s merger with Fiat.
On this news, Fiat’s shares fell sharply, wiping out nearly $1 billion in market capitalization in a single trading day.
