Deadline Alert: Law Offices of Howard G. Smith Reminds Investors of the Upcoming September 19 Deadline in the Class Action Lawsuit Against K12 Inc.

BENSALEM, Pa.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

Law Offices of Howard G. Smith reminds investors of the upcoming September 19, 2016 deadline to file a lead plaintiff motion in the class action filed on behalf of a class (the "Class") of investors who purchased K12 Inc. ("K12" or the "Company") LRN securities between November 7, 2013, and October 27, 2015, inclusive (the "Class Period"). K12 investors have until September 19, 2016 to file a lead plaintiff motion.

The complaint filed in this lawsuit alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and/or misleading statements, as well as failed to disclose material adverse facts about the Company's business, operations, and prospects, including: (1) that K12 was publishing misleading advertisements about students' academic progress, parent satisfaction, their graduates' eligibility for University of California and California State University admission, class sizes, the individualized and flexible nature of K12's instruction, hidden costs, and the quality of the materials provided to students; (2) that K12 submitted inflated student attendance numbers to the California Department of Education in order to collect additional funding; (3) that, as a result of the aforementioned practices, the Company was open to potential civil and criminal liability; (4) that the Company would likely be forced to end these practices, which would have a negative impact on K12's operations and prospects, and/or that K12 was, in fact, ending the practices; and (5) that, as a result of the foregoing, Defendants' statements about K12's business, operations, and prospects, were false and misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis.

If you purchased K12 shares, you may move the Court no later than September 19, 2016 to request appointment as lead plaintiff. To be a member of the class you need not take any action at this time; you may retain counsel of your choice or take no action and remain an absent member of the Class.
