According to the suit, the CCCR issued materially false and misleading financial statements about its true financial condition by misstating the CCCR's involvement in risky loans and loan guarantee obligations. In a February 18, 2014 Forbes article, CCCR's CEO was quoted as saying that "[highly risky loans] among microcredit companies [in China] are not widespread." On May 9, 2014, in a public offering, CCCR sold 1,650,386 of its shares at $3.99 per share, with net proceeds to it of $6.14 million. In the prospectus, dated May 8, 2014, CCCR represented that it estimates loss on its guarantee business to be about 1% of the contract amount.

On July 25, 2014, CCCR issued a press release stating that (a) it had paid out $5.4 million in loan guarantees in Q1 2014, and had received only $0.7 million in cash and $2.1 million in one-year notes from the borrowers, and (b) it had paid out $3.7 million in guarantees in Q2 2014, of which it had only recovered $1.1 million, and converted $1.6 million of it to one-year notes. On this news, CCCR's stock price fell $1.20, or 32%, damaging investors.
