NEW YORK, Sept. 28, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Gainey McKenna & Egleston announces that a class action lawsuit has
been filed against Frontier Communications Corporation (“Frontier” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ:FTR) in the United States District
Court for the District of Connecticut on behalf of a class consisting of investors who purchased or otherwise acquired Frontier
securities on the open market from April 1, 2016 through May 2, 2017, inclusive (the “Class Period”), seeking to recover
compensable damages caused by Defendants’ violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
The Complaint alleges Defendants made materially false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose
that: (1) Frontier acquired a substantial number of non-paying accounts as part of its acquisition of the wireline operations of
Verizon Communications, Inc.; (2) consequently, Frontier would be required to increase its reserves and write off amounts from
accounts receivable associated with the non-paying accounts; and (3) as a result of the foregoing, Defendants’ statements about
Frontier’s business, operations and prospects were false and misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis. When the true details
entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.
If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than November 27,
2017. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the
