SAN FRANCISCO, April 06, 2016 -- Hagens Berman Sobol Shapiro LLP, a national investor-rights law firm, reminds comScore, Inc.

The lawsuit was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York and investors have until May 9, 2016 to move the court to participate as a lead plaintiff. 

comScore disclosed on March 5, 2016, that its Audit Committee advised its Board of Directors that it did not expect to finalize review of potential accounting issues before March 15, 2016. The Company also disclosed that, as a result it was “not in a position to file its Form 10-K until after the Audit Committee completes its review and the Company’s independent public accountants assess the conclusions of the Audit Committee in connection with their audit of the Company’s annual financial statements included in the Form 10-K.”

In a press release issued on March 7, 2016, comScore stated that it was suspending its previously announced share repurchase program. On the announcement of this news, comScore stock fell $13.67 per share, or 33.5%, to close at $27.04 per share on March 7, 2016.
