According to the complaint, defendants throughout the Class Period made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) Tupperware lacked effective internal controls; (2) as a result, Tupperware would need to investigate Fuller Mexico's accounting and liabilities; (3) consequently, Tupperware would be unable to timely file its annual report on Form 10-K for its fiscal year 2019; (4) Tupperware did not properly account for its accounts payable and accrued liabilities at Fuller Mexico; (5) Tupperware provided overvalued earnings per share guidance; (6) Tupperware would need relief from its $650 million Credit Agreement; and (7) as a result, defendants' statements about its business, operations, and prospects, were materially false and misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis at all relevant times.

On February 24, 2020, after the market closed, Tupperware issued a press release announcing that it was unable to timely file its annual report for the fiscal year ending December 28, 2019.  Tupperware also announced that its results were affected by financial reporting issues with Fuller Mexico and that Tupperware was conducting an "investigation primarily into the accounting for accounts payable and accrued liabilities at its Fuller Mexico beauty business[.]" Additionally, "the Company is forecasting a need for relief concerning its existing leverage ratio covenant in its $650 million Credit Agreement dated March 29, 2019 [], to avoid a potential acceleration of the debt, which could have a material adverse impact on the Company."

On this news, Tupperware's stock price fell $2.61 per share, or over 45%, to close at $3.11 per share on February 25, 2020.
