BOSTON, April 10, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- RTI Surgical (NASDAQ:RTI) announced this morning that it was restating financial results from 2014 through 2019 because it improperly included revenue earlier than it should have under accounting rules. This improper accounting misled investors, causing them to pay more for their shares than they otherwise would have. Investors who have lost money in RTI should contact Block & Leviton for a free case evaluation to learn how they might recoup some of those losses. The deadline for moving for lead plaintiff in the existing securities fraud suit against RTI is May 22, 2020.

In an 8-K filed with the SEC this morning, RTI admitted that over five years of financial results have been misstated. “An accounting restatement this large is concerning. Our investigation is focused on how this went wrong at RTI and how we can help investors recover losses caused by these significant errors” said Jacob Walker, the attorney leading Block & Leviton’s investigation. An existing securities fraud class action was filed prior to this development in the Northern District of Illinois. Investors who want to participate as lead plaintiff must move the Court by May 22, 2020, and thus should contact Block & Leviton as soon as possible.
