Fifth Street Finance Corp. is a specialty finance company managed by Fifth Street Asset Management, Inc. According to the lawsuit, defendants throughout the Class Period engaged in a fraudulent scheme to artificially inflate Fifth Street Finance Corp.’s assets and investment income to increase Fifth Street Asset Management’s revenue by: (1) pushing Fifth Street Finance Corp. into increasingly risky investments at unsustainable leverage levels; (2) delaying the write down of impaired investments to create the appearance of increasing revenues for Fifth Street Asset Management; and (3) systematically overstating the income generated by Fifth Street Finance Corp.’s investments and the fair value of its portfolio, while simultaneously providing the investing public with false and misleading portrayals of Fifth Street Finance Corp.’s business trends and expected performance. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.
