USCR securities between March 6, 2015 and March 23, 2017 (the "Class Period"). Investors have until May 30, 2017 to apply to the Court to be appointed as lead plaintiff in the lawsuit.

U.S. Concrete, Inc. produces and sells ready-mixed concrete, aggregates, and concrete-related products and services for the U.S. construction industry.

The Company also informed investors that the Company dismissed its previous auditor, Grant Thornton LLP, and engaged Ernst & Young LLP as its new public accounting firm.

On this news, U.S. Concrete shares declined $5.90 per share, or nearly 9%, to close at $60.80 on March 24, 2017.
