outlet that the Company “engaged in college application fraud, including writing application essays and teacher recommendations,
and falsifying high school transcripts.” On this news, shares of New Oriental fell $6.99 per share from its previous closing price
to close at $42.00 per share on December 2, 2016, damaging investors.
