STEVENSON, Md., Dec. 03, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The securities litigation law firm of Brower Piven, A Professional Corporation, announces that a class action lawsuit has been commenced in the United States District Court for the Central District of California on behalf of purchasers of Starz (Nasdaq:STRZA) (Nasdaq:STRZB) (“Starz” or the “Company”) securities during the period between August 1, 2014 and October 29, 2015, inclusive (the “Class Period”). Investors who wish to become proactively involved in the litigation have until January 8, 2016 to seek appointment as lead plaintiff.
If you have suffered a loss from investment in Starz securities purchased on or after August 1, 2014 and held through the revelation of negative information during and/or at the end of the Class Period, as described below, and would like to learn more about this lawsuit and your ability to participate as a lead plaintiff, without cost or obligation to you, please visit our website at http://www.browerpiven.com/currentsecuritiescases.html. You may also request more information by contacting Brower Piven either by email at [email protected] or by telephone at (410) 415-6616. No class has yet been certified in the above action. Members of the Class will be represented by the lead plaintiff and counsel chosen by the lead plaintiff.
If you wish to choose counsel to represent you and the Class, you must apply to be appointed lead plaintiff and be selected by the Court. The lead plaintiff will direct the litigation and participate in important decisions including whether to accept a settlement for the Class in the action. The lead plaintiff will be selected from among applicants claiming the largest loss from investment in Company securities during the Class Period. Brower Piven also encourages anyone with information regarding the Company’s conduct during the period in question to contact the firm, including whistleblowers, former employees, shareholders and others.
The complaint accuses the defendants of violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 by virtue of the defendants’ failure to disclose during the Class Period that the Company’s contract with Comcast Corporation (“Comcast”) was a result of illicit business practices.
According to the complaint, online magazine Deadline Hollywood revealed that the company’s former Senior Vice President of Sales and Affiliate Marketing, Keno Thomas, filed a lawsuit against the company alleging that the company’s contract with Comcast was the result of illicit business practices. Further, Thomas alleges that the company’s senior management instructed him to fabricate revenue and subscriber information. On this news, the value of Starz shares declined substantially.
Attorneys at Brower Piven have extensive experience in litigating securities and other class action cases and have been advocating for the rights of shareholders since the 1980s. If you choose to retain counsel, you may retain Brower Piven without financial obligation or cost to you, or you may retain other counsel of your choice. You need take no action at this time to be a member of the class.
