The complaint alleges that throughout the Class Period, Resource and certain of its executive officers and directors issued materially false and/or misleading information regarding the risk of the Company’s commercial loans portfolio and its processes and controls for assessing the quality of its portfolio.
On August 4, 2015, Resource disclosed a GAAP net loss of $31.0 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2015, citing the recording of a $41.1 million allowance for loan loss. Upon this news, shares of Resource Capital fell from a closing price of $3.48 on August 4, 2015, to a close of $3.05 the following day.
Plaintiffs seek to recover damages on behalf of all Class members who invested in RSO securities during the Class Period. If you invested in RSO securities as described above, and lost money on the transactions, you may wish to join in this action to serve as lead plaintiff. In order to do so, you must meet certain requirements set forth in the applicable law and file appropriate papers no later than November 9, 2015.
A "lead plaintiff" is a representative party that acts on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation. In order to be appointed lead plaintiff, the court must determine that the class member’s claim is typical of the claims of other class members, and that the class member will adequately represent the class. Under certain circumstances, one or more class members may together serve as lead plaintiff. Your ability to share in any recovery is not, however, affected by the decision whether or not to serve as a lead plaintiff. You may retain Bernstein Liebhard LLP, or other counsel of your choice, to serve as your counsel in this action
