Comscore Fair Fund Claims Now Open for Eligible Investors
If you purchased Comscore common stock (SCOR) between February 20, 2014, and March 23, 2018, and experienced financial losses, you may be eligible for a Distribution Payment from the substantial $5.7 Million Fair Fund.
Understanding the Fair Fund
The Fair Fund was established following actions by the Commission against Comscore and its former Chief Executive Officer, Matta, due to fraudulent financial reporting. During the period mentioned, the company inflated its revenue by around $43 million through improper contract accounting methods. This type of manipulation allowed Comscore to surpass revenue targets for several consecutive quarters, leading to significant mockery within the investment community.
Comscore's Violations and Settlements
The Commission's findings confirmed that Comscore and Matta violated the federal securities laws through misleading financial statements. The penalties imposed included payments of $5 million from Comscore and $700,000 from Matta. These funds contribute to the Fair Fund established to compensate harmed investors.

To qualify for a Distribution Payment from this Fair Fund, it is essential that you have acquired shares of Comscore common stock within the specified timeframe and have incurred losses as a result of the company's financial misreporting.
