An investor in IMMR shares filed a lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California on behalf of purchasers of Immersion Corporation (NASDAQ:IMMR) publicly traded securities during the period between May 3, 2007 and June 30, 2009. According to the complaint the plaintiff alleges that Immersion and certain of its officers and directors violated the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 by issuing between May 3, 2007 and June 30, 2009 materially false and misleading statements regarding the Immersion`s transactions in its Medical line of business. Specifically, defendants failed to disclose that Immersion`s revenue recognition practices in its Medical line of business were improper and as a result of defendants` false and misleading statements, Immersion stock (NASDAQ: IMMR) traded at artificially inflated prices between May 3, 2007 and June 30, 2009, reaching a high of $20.50 per share on July 13, 2007, so the lawsuit. Then in February 2008, Immersion announced a correction of its income tax expense for its interim 2007 results. But the plaintiff alleges that the stock continued to trade at artificially inflated levels due to Immersion’s reported profitability. Then, on July 1, 2009, before the market opened, Immersion Corp issued a press release announcing that the Audit Committee of the Company`s Board was conducting an internal investigation into certain previous revenue transactions in its Medical line of business and on this news, Immersion`s stock dropped over 23% from a close of $4.94 per share on June 30, 2009 to a close of $3.80 per share on July 1, 2009, so the lawsuit.
