Mohawk Industries, Inc. (MHK) Securities Class Action:
The complaint alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants made false and misleading statements about Mohawk's sales growth and the demand for the Company's conventional flooring products. The complaint also alleges that Defendants falsely reassured investors about the Company's increasing accounts receivable and inventory levels during the Class Period by deceptively attributing those increases to external factors like rising raw material costs and inflation. According to the complaint, in truth, Defendants were engaging in fraudulent channel stuffing, booking fictitious sales of its flooring products.
The market learned the truth through a series of corrective disclosures between July 26, 2018 and July 26, 2019, when Mohawk reported disappointing financial results and reduced production to control inventory levels and match its supply with waning customer demand. These disclosures caused the price of MHK shares to decline precipitously, thereby injuring Mohawk investors.
"We're focused on investors' losses and proving Mohawk stuffed the channel to mask declining demand for its conventional flooring products," said Reed Kathrein, the Hagens Berman partner leading the investigation.
