Pattern Accused of Implementing Deficient Controls over Financial Reporting
According to the complaint, Pattern submitted several filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission certifying that
the financial information was accurate and disclosed any material changes to the company's internal control over financial
reporting. However, the complaint alleges that Pattern officials failed to disclose that Pattern's operations were deficient, and
as a result, Pattern lacked effective internal financial controls.
On November 7, 2016, Pattern disclosed a material weakness in internal controls over financial reporting, citing deficiencies
related to the implementation, design, maintenance, and operating effectiveness of various transaction, process level, and
monitoring controls. Pattern further noted that frequent changes in organizational structure were not adequately supported by
elements of the company's internal control over financial reporting. On this news, Pattern stock fell $0.76 per share, or 3.52%, to
close at $20.86 per share on November 7, 2016.
