About the Lawsuit

Signet and certain of its executives are charged with failing to disclose material information during the Class Period, violating federal securities laws.

On February 27, 2017, The Washington Post reported widespread claims of sexual harassment and discrimination by approximately 250 former employees of Signet's Sterling Family of Jewelers division against Company management and executives, including Signet's current CEO, Mark Light. The details of the claims originated from a private arbitration proceeding in June 2013, but had remained under seal until February 26, 2017. The report further detailed that the arbitration encompassed a certified class of 69,000 women who are current or former employees of the Company.

On this news, the price of Signet's shares plummeted.
