Law Offices of Howard G. Smith, Representing Investors of DynaVox, Inc., Announces Class Action Lawsuit
BENSALEM, Pa.--([ BUSINESS WIRE ])--Law Offices of Howard G. Smith, representing investors of DynaVox, Inc. (aDynaVoxa or the aCompanya) (NASDAQ:DVOX), has filed a class action lawsuit in United States District Court on behalf of a class (the aClassa) consisting of all persons or entities who purchased the securities of DynaVox pursuant and/or traceable to the Registration Statement and Prospectus issued in connection with the Companya™s April 21, 2010, initial public offering (the aIPOa). The class action lawsuit was filed in the United States District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania.
"the Company experienced a softening of demand for both its speech generating devices and software products. As a result, operating results for the fiscal first quarter will not be consistent with historical performance or indicative of what management believes to be the Companya™s long-term future operating potential."
The Complaint charges DynaVox and certain of the Companya™s executive officers, among others, with violations of federal securities laws. DynaVox designs, manufactures and distributes electronic and symbol-based augmentative communication equipment, software and services. The Company offers speech generating technology and special education software solutions for individuals with speech, language, physical or learning disabilities. The Complaint alleges that defendants misrepresented and/or failed to disclose that: (1) the Company was experiencing a softening of demand for its speech generating devices and for its software products; and (2) as a result, the weak demand for the Companya™s products would cause DynaVoxa™s financial results to trend adversely compared to the trends included in the Registration Statement.
On September 30, 2010, DynaVox issued a press release commenting on the Companya™s first quarter fiscal 2011 results and disclosed that athe Company experienced a softening of demand for both its speech generating devices and software products. As a result, operating results for the fiscal first quarter will not be consistent with historical performance or indicative of what management believes to be the Companya™s long-term future operating potential.a
As a result of this news, the price of DynaVox shares declined $2.68 per share, or approximately 33%, to close on October 1, 2010 at $5.44 per share, on unusually heavy trading volume.
