Bragar Eagel & Squire, P.C. Reminds Investors that a Class Action Lawsuit Has Been Filed Against Patriot National, Inc.
(PN) and Encourages Investors with Losses to Contact the Firm Before May 15, 2017
Bragar Eagel & Squire, P.C. reminds investors that a class action lawsuit has been filed in the U.S. District Court for the
Southern District of New York on behalf of all persons or entities who purchased or otherwise acquired Patriot National, Inc.
(NYSE:PN) securities between August 15, 2016 and March 3, 2017 (the “Class Period”). Investors have until May 15, 2017 to apply to
the Court to be appointed as lead plaintiff in the lawsuit.
On March 3, 2017, the Company announced that it had entered into an agreement with Guarantee Insurance Group (“GIG”) and Steve
Mariano, regarding the service agreements between the Company and GIG’s wholly-owned subsidiary Guarantee Insurance Company
(“GIC”). Mr. Mariano is the Chairman, CEO, and majority owner of Patriot National, as well as the majority owner of GIG.
The Company further disclosed that GIC is Patriot National’s principal customer with contracts and relationships from GIC
generating $107.8 million, or 59% of the Company’s Total Fee Income and Fee Income from Related Party for the nine months ended
September 30, 2016. This disclosure comes on the heels of a complaint filed in November 2016 by a Patriot National shareholder
alleging that Mr. Mariano had been using the Company “as his personal piggy bank” and that Mariano made a series of decisions that
were detrimental to the Company’s business, but that allowed him to retain control of the Company.
Following this news, Patriot National shares fell $0.72 per share, or approximately 16.4%, to close at $3.67 per share on March
6, 2017.
