NEW YORK, Aug. 20, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Bronstein, Gewirtz & Grossman, LLC notifies investors that a securities class action has been filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York on behalf of those who purchased shares of Genworth Financial, Inc. ("Genworth" or the "Company") (NYSE: GNW), during the period between December 4, 2013 and July 29, 2014, inclusive (the "Class Period").
The complaint charges Genworth and certain of its executives with violations of federal securities laws. Specifically, the complaint alleges that: (i) that the Company's long term care insurance ("LTC") claims were increasing in number and size; (ii) that the Company would have to increase its reserves to meet these claims; and (iii) that, as a result of the foregoing, the Company's statements about its business, operations, and prospects were materially false and misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis.
On July 29, 2014, after the market close, Genworth announced that its LTC division suffered greater losses than the previous quarter due to higher and greater LTC claims and it was reviewing the adequacy of its claims reserves.
On this news, shares of Genworth fell $2.28 or over 14% to trade at $13.98 on July 30, 2014.
Plaintiff seeks to recover damages on behalf of all shareholders who purchased shares of Genworth during the Class Period described above.
