Specifically, the investigation focuses on whether certain individuals violated federal securities laws by, among other things, failing to disclose: (1) negative trends in the Companya™s business, including faster than expected adoption of smartphones by consumers; (2) demand for the Companya™s services by the Companya™s largest consumers was not increasing to the extent represented; and (3) the Companya™s business was not growing as fast as represented, particularly domestically.
On August 9, 2011, the Company announced its second quarter 2011 financial results, reporting a $4.3 million net loss, or $0.09 diluted earnings per share, falling far short of Wall Streeta™s forecast. On this news the Companya™s stock dropped 50% on very high trading volume to open at $2.26 per share on August 10, 2011.
