On February 21, 2017 Global Eagle filed its Form 8-K with the SEC disclosing its CEO (Dave Davis) and CFO (Tom Severson) had resigned. The Company also disclosed it expected to untimely file its 2016 Form 10-K in part because of the CFO’s departure and due to “its need to complete additional financial-closing procedures associated with the Company’s material weaknesses in internal control over its financial reporting.”
This news drove the price of Global Eagle shares down approximately 28% to close at $4.48 per share on February 21, 2017.
“Among other things, we’re concerned about Davis’ and Severson’s abrupt resignations, the admitted material weaknesses in internal controls over financial reporting, and a potential restatement of financial statements,” said Hagens Berman partner Reed Kathrein.
