Dollar General Investor Reminder: Hagens Berman Reminds Dollar General Investors of March 20, 2017 Lead Plaintiff Deadline

SAN FRANCISCO, March 08, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Hagens Berman Sobol Shapiro LLP reminds investors in Dollar General Corporation (NYSE: DG ) of the March 20, 2017 Lead Plaintiff deadline in the pending securities class action.

If you purchased or otherwise acquired securities of DG between March 10, 2016 and November 30, 2016 and suffered over $50,000 in losses contact Hagens Berman Sobol Shapiro LLP.  For more information visit:

or contact Reed Kathrein, who is leading the firm’s investigation, by calling 510-725-3000 or emailing DG@hbsslaw.com .

On March 10, 2016, in response to a securities analyst’s question about what the federal food stamp benefits program (also known as “SNAP”) revenues meant for DG, its Chief Executive Officer Todd J. Visos responded in part “SNAP for us is approximately 5% of our sales.  So it really has – it’s not a huge piece of the business”.

Nonetheless, on December 1, 2016, DG surprised investors when it reported disappointing fiscal third quarter 2016 results and attributed the surprise in part to SNAP revenues affecting “about 56% of our store base”.

This news drove the price of DG shares down nearly 5% to close at $73.48 per share that day.

“Our investigation into this matter includes the truth of the CEO’s statement that SNAP revenues were not a huge piece of the business,” said Hagens Berman partner Reed Kathrein.

Whistleblowers: Persons with non-public information regarding DG should consider their options to help in the investigation or take advantage of the SEC Whistleblower program.  Under the new SEC whistleblower program, whistleblowers who provide original information may receive rewards totaling up to 30 percent of any successful recovery made by the SEC.  For more information, call Reed Kathrein at 510-725-3000 or email DG@hbsslaw.com .
