Tripp Levy PLLC, a leading national securities law firm, announces that a new class action lawsuit has been filed against Penn West Petroleum, Ltd. (“Penn West”) (NYSE:PWE), and certain of its current and former officers, in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, on behalf of all persons who purchased shares of Penn West common stock on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) during the period February 17, 2011 through July 29, 2014 (the “Class”), and were damaged thereby. This action alleges claims for violations of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

The Complaint charges that Defendants made materially false and/or misleading statements, including that the Company was understating operating costs and overstating capital expenditures and royalty expenses; and the Company’s improper accounting practices were causing Penn West to be at risk of non-compliance with certain of its debt covenants.

On July 29, 2014, the Company disclosed that its Audit Committee was conducting an internal review of certain of its accounting practices for “2014 and the four previous fiscal years.” Thus far, the Audit Committee has concluded that the Company improperly reclassified approximately $181 million in operating expenses as capital expenditures, and had “incorrectly reclassified” approximately $200 million in additional operating expenses as royalty expenses for 2012 and 2013. The Company will restate its past financial statements for years 2012 and 2013 and certain interim periods, and consequently, may not be in compliance with certain of its debt covenants.

On this news, Penn West shares declined $1.30 per share or 14% on July 30, 2014.

ROCKET FUEL SHAREHOLDER ALERT: National Securities Law Firm Encourages Investors Who Have Losses in Excess of $100,000 to Contact Law Firm Before the November 3, 2014 Lead Plaintiff Deadline in Class Action Lawsuit

September 5, 2014
New York, New York

Tripp Levy PLLC, a leading national securities law firm, announces that a class action lawsuit has been commenced in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California on behalf of purchasers of Rocket Fuel Inc. (“Rocket Fuel” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq:FUEL) common stock during the period between September 20, 2013 and August 5, 2014, inclusive (the “Class Period”), including those who purchased shares in the Company’s initial public offering pursuant to the Registration Statement and Prospectuses (“Offering Documents”).

The complaint accuses the defendants of violations of the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 by virtue of the Company’s failure to disclose in the Offering Documents and/or during the Class Period that a large percentage of the ads Rocket Fuel brokered were being “viewed” by automated fraudulent computer programs the Company could not identify and eliminate rather than people such that the Company’s operations and financial performance were in jeopardy. According to the complaint, following the Company’s August 5, 2014 announcement that it expected 2014 revenue to be substantially lower than its forecast, following a Wall Street Journal article on that same day the Company’s lowering of its full-year revenue guidance, and following George John’s comments during a conference call with investors on that same date during which he suggested that fraudulent traffic is an industry-wide phenomena that was not well understood and expressed surprise at the extent to which industry trends, including “bot traffic and low-quality ad space on digital exchanges,” the value of Rocket Fuel shares declined significantly.

Plaintiff seeks to recover damages on behalf of all shareholders who purchased shares of Rocket Fuel during the Class Period described above.

No Class has yet been certified in the above action. If you wish to review a copy of the Complaint, to discuss this action, or have any questions, please contact us toll free at 1-800-906-6432 or contact us via our website.
