About the Lawsuit
Molycorp and certain of its senior executives are charged with issuing a series of materially false and misleading statements, during the Class Period, in violation of Section 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder.
The complaint alleges that, during the Class Period, defendants made materially false and misleading statements, including that: (a) Molycorp's development of its Mountain Pass mine was not progressing according to plan; (b) that the Company was not on schedule to reach its 2012 and 2013 production rates; and (c) these production problems came at the same time demand for the Company's products was declining.
It was only on November 10, 2011, that investors learned the truth about Molycorp after it reported disappointing revenue and earnings results for the third quarter 2011, and when it revealed the problems related to its Mountain Pass operations. Immediately following these belated disclosures, shares of the Company's fell over 13.5% - falling from $38.70 per share to $33.45 per share, on heavy trading volume.
