Law Offices of Howard G. Smith announces that a class action lawsuit has been filed on behalf of investors that purchased
Frontier Communications Corporation (“Frontier” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: FTR) securities between April 1, 2016, and May 2, 2017, inclusive (the “Class Period”). Frontier

Frontier provides communications services in the United States, including broadband, video, and voice services. In April 2016,
Frontier completed the acquisition of the wireline operations of Verizon Communications, Inc. in California, Texas and Florida (the
“Verizon Acquisition”), for a purchase price of $10.5 billion in cash and assumed debt. However, according to the complaint filed
in this lawsuit, defendants failed to disclose the underperformance of the Verizon Acquisition.
Specifically, the complaint filed in this lawsuit alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants made materially false
and/or misleading statements by failing to disclose: (1) that the Company acquired a substantial number of non-paying accounts as
part of its acquisition of the wireline operations of Verizon Communications, Inc.; (2) that, as a result, the Company would be
required to increase its reserves, and write off amounts from accounts receivable associated with the non-paying accounts; and (3)
that, 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.
If you purchased shares of Frontier, have information or would like to learn more about these claims, or have any questions
