NEW YORK, May 13, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Wolf Haldenstein Adler Freeman & Herz LLP announces that a class action lawsuit has been filed
on behalf of shareholders of Vivint Solar, Inc. (“Vivint” or the “Company”) (NYSE:VSLR) in the United States District Court for the
Eastern District of Missouri who purchased Vivint common stock between July 20, 2015 and March 7, 2016, (the
“Class Period”), inclusive. The lawsuit seeks to recover damages from certain SunEdison directors and officers on behalf of
Vivint investors under the federal securities laws. Vivint is not being sued in this case.
Shareholders who have purchased Vivint Solar, Inc. are urged to contact the firm
immediately at classmember@whafh.com or (800) 575-0735 or (212) 545-4774.
If you purchased shares of Vivint Solar, Inc. during the Class Period and suffered a loss, you may request that the
Court appoint you lead plaintiff of the proposed class no later than July 5, 2016.
In July of 2015, SunEdison, Inc. (“SunEdison”) and Vivint announced a merger pursuant to which
SunEdison would acquire Vivint. On this announcement, Vivint’s stock price increased $4.87, an increase of approximately
44.8%, to close at $15.75. On February 24, 2016, at the Company’s special shareholders meeting, Vivint shareholders voted to
approve the merger with SunEdison.
According to the Complaint, Defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to
disclose that: (i) SunEdison would be unable to obtain financing for the acquisition of Vivint; (ii) SunEdison’s liquidity
was less than Defendants had stated; (iii) SunEdison would not be able to complete the acquisition of Vivint; and (iv) as a result,
Defendants’ statements about the merger between SunEdison and Vivint were materially false and misleading and/or lacked a
reasonable basis at all relevant times.
On February 29, 2016, SunEdison filed a Notification of Late Filing on Form 12b-25 with the SEC, disclosing that
the Company would be unable to timely file its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015. The
Notification of Late Filing revealed that the Board’s Audit Committee had recently initiated an investigation concerning the
accuracy of the SunEdison’s previously anticipated financial position. After this information became public, Vivint’s share
price fell from a closing price of $7.89 per share on February 29, 2016 to a closing price of $6.52 on March 1, 2016. On March
8, 2016, the merger was terminated and Vivint shares fell $1.04, to close at $4.17.
