On August 3, 2017, EFII announced in a press release filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission that it postponed the conference call at which it anticipated discussing second quarter 2017 preliminary results. 

The Company explained that the delay is “in order to enable the Company to complete an assessment of the timing of recognition of revenue…related to certain transactions where a customer signed a sales contract for one or more large format printers and was invoiced, and the printer(s) were stored at a third party in-transit warehouse prior to delivery to the end user.”

EFII also stated it expects to report a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting and that disclosure controls were not effective in prior periods.

This news drove the price of EFII shares down over $18.00, or over 38%, during intraday trading on August 4, 2017.

“We’re focused on the magnitude of management’s apparent improper revenue recognition and the damage the conduct inflicted on investors,” said Hagens Berman partner Reed Kathrein.
