NEW YORK, March 03, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Attorney Advertising -- Bronstein, Gewirtz & Grossman, LLC notifies investors that a class action lawsuit has been filed against Graña y Montero S.A.A. (“Graña” or the “Company”) (NYSE: GRAM ) and certain of its officers, and is on behalf of a class consisting of all persons or entities who purchased Graña securities between April 30, 2014 through February 24, 2017, both dates inclusive (the “Class Period”). Such investors are advised to join this case by visiting the firm’s site: http://www.bgandg.com/gram .
This class action seeks to recover damages against Defendants for alleged violations of the federal securities laws under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”).
The Complaint alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and/or misleading statements, and that: (1) Graña was aware that its Brazilian partner Odebrecht S.A. paid bribes to former Peruvian President Alejandro Toledo to win construction work on a road traveling from Peru to Brazil; and (2) consequently, defendants’ statements about Graña’s business, operations and prospects were materially false and misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis at all relevant times.
On February 24, 2017, local news magazine Hildebrandt en sus trece revealed that Graña y Montero was aware of $20 million in bribes conferred to former President Alejandro Toledo by Brazilian firm Odebrecht SA. Graña was one of Odebrecht’s local partners on two sections of a project to pave a road from the Peruvian Amazon to Brazil. Following this news, Graña shares dropped $1.77 per share or over 34% to close $3.32 on February 24, 2017.
