According to the complaint the plaintiff alleges that Intrepid Potash, Inc. (NYSE: IPI; “Intrepid Potash”), as well as a current and a former executive officer violated federal securities laws by filing the Prospectus and Registration Statement (collectively the "Registration Statement") with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with the Company's IPO, which contained false and misleading statements and failed to disclose material information. Then on February 11, 2009 a report was issued by the Fraud Discovery Institute revealing that the Intrepid Potash 's President and COO had affirmatively lied and misrepresented his educational qualifications in the Registration Statement issued in connection with Intrepid Potash's IPO. In response to this news, shares of the Company's stock declined $1.52 per share to close at $22.00 per share on February 11, 2009. This closing price on Intrepid Potash represented a cumulative loss of $10.00, approximately 31.25%, of the value of the Company's shares at the time of its IPO just months earlier, so the lawsuit.
After the market closed on February 11, 2009, Intrepid Potash issued a press release disclosing that the Company's President and COO was resigning and confirmed that the statements contained in the Intrepid Potash's Registration Statement about the educational qualifications of the Intrepid Potash 's President and COO were false and that the "misrepresentation of his academic credentials was a violation under the Company's Code of Business Conduct."
If you purchased or otherwise acquired the securities of Intrepid Potash, Inc.
