SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 13, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Hagens Berman urges Under Armour, Inc. UA UAA))) investors who have suffered losses in excess of $100,000 to submit their losses now or contact the firm immediately to learn if they qualify to recover compensable damages.  A securities fraud class action was recently filed on behalf of certain Under Armour investors against the company and senior executives.

Under Armour (UA, UAA) Securities Class Action:

The complaint alleges that Defendants misled investors by engaging in fraudulent accounting.

According to the complaint, Under Armour improperly shifted sales from quarter to quarter to appear healthier, including to keep pace with its long-running year-over-year 20% net revenue growth. In addition, Defendants concealed the U.S. Department of Justice's and U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission's investigations of Under Armour's accounting.

On Nov. 3, 2019, The Wall Street Journal reported that the Department of Justice and the Securities and Exchange Commission were investigating Under Armour to determine whether the company "shifted sales from quarter to quarter to appear healthier."

On this news, the price of Under Armour shares fell sharply.
