On January 26, 2018, The Wall Street Journal reported that dozens of people recount a
pattern of sexual misconduct by Wynn Resorts' CEO and Chairman (Steve Wynn). This news drove
the price of Wynn shares down $20.31, or about 10%, to close at $180.29 that day. The stock price continued to fall during intraday trading on January 29, 2018.
The Massachusetts state gambling regulator, which granted Wynn a casino license in 2014,
reportedly said it will conduct a regulatory review following the WSJ report. The Massachusetts casino law reportedly requires the regulator "to consider the 'integrity, honesty, good
character and reputation of the applicant' when considering bids for a gaming license" and "[l]anguage in the law also notes that
licensees 'shall have a continuing duty to maintain their integrity and financial stability.'"
"We're focused on the reported misconduct that, if true, inflicted significant damages on WYNN investors," said Hagens Berman partner Reed Kathrein.
Whistleblowers: Persons with non-public information regarding Wynn should consider their options to help in the
investigation or take advantage of the SEC Whistleblower program. Under the new program, whistleblowers who provide
original information may receive rewards totaling up to 30 percent of any successful recovery made by the SEC. For more
information, call Reed Kathrein at 510-725-3000 or email WYNN@hbsslaw.com.
