(Nasdaq: FLEX ) (“Flex”) investors that a class action lawsuit has been filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California against Flex on behalf of purchasers of Flex Ordinary Shares between January 26, 2017 and April 26, 2018 , inclusive (the “Class Period”).

According to the complaint, Flex purportedly provides design, engineering, manufacturing, and supply chain services and solutions.
The Class Period commences on February 23, 2017, when Flex published a press release announcing its financial results for the quarter ended December 31, 2016.
According to the complaint, on April 26, 2018, Flex issued a press release disclosing that the company’s Audit Committee, with the assistance of independent outside counsel, was investigating allegations by an employee that the company improperly accounted for obligations in a customer contract and certain related reserves.
Following this news, Flex’s share price fell $3.61 per share, or more than 21%, on high trading volume, to close at $13.03 per share on April 27, 2018.
The complaint alleges that, throughout the Class Period, the defendants failed to disclose: (1) that the company’s internal controls over financial reporting were materially weak and deficient; (2) that the company had improperly accounted for obligations in a customer contract and certain related reserves; and, (3) that, as a result of the foregoing, the company’s financial statements and the defendants’ statements about Flex’s business, operations, and prospects, were materially false and misleading at all relevant times.
