CIRCOR International (CIR) Investigation:

The investigation concerns whether CIRCOR’s accounting for discontinued operations and related impairments conformed with GAAP.

More specifically, CIRCOR and senior management have repeatedly assured investors that the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting are effective.

But, on Feb. 6, 2020, after the market closed, CIRCOR announced its CFO resigned effective Mar. 2, 2020 while reaffirming the Company’s 4Q 2019 financial outlook.

Then, on Mar. 2, 2020, after the market closed, CIRCOR announced it would not timely file its year end 2019 financial report, it has identified material weaknesses in its internal control over financial reporting, and it is investigating accounting and reporting matters at one of its domestic business units that has been classified as discontinued operations.

These announcements have driven the price of CIRCOR shares sharply lower.

“We’re focused on investors’ losses and whether CIRCOR may have intentionally understated asset impairments to appear more profitable,” said Reed Kathrein, the Hagens Berman partner leading the investigation.
