LifeVantage announced on September 13, 2016 that it would not timely file its Annual Report on Form 10-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  The Company explained that “[f]ollowing an internal review by Company personnel of its policies and procedures, the Company is in the process of reviewing its sales into certain international markets and the revenue and income tax accruals associated with such sales.” 

In response to this news, LifeVantage’s stock price dropped approximately 12.7% to close at $9.08 per share on September 14, 2016.

A lawsuit against the Company, filed September 15, 2016, claims that LifeVantage lacked effective internal controls and improperly recognized revenue from its international business.

As of October 4, 2016, the Company has yet to file its Form 10-K with the SEC.

“The accounting rules are fairly clear on when it is proper to recognize revenues and record expenses,” said Hagens Berman partner Reed Kathrein.  “Those are not judgment calls and LFVN investors are rightly concerned about the possible outcome of the internal review.” Hagens Berman continues its investigation of LifeVantage.

Whistleblowers: Persons with non-public information regarding LFVN should consider their options to help in the investigation or take advantage of the SEC Whistleblower program. Under the new SEC whistleblower program, whistleblowers who provide original information may receive rewards totaling up to 30 percent of any successful recovery made by the SEC.
