According to the Complaint, Ormat made false and misleading statements to the market throughout the class period. The Company failed to disclose error on its income tax provision relating to usage of foreign tax credits before they expired. Ormat netted deferred income tax assets and liabilities across different tax jurisdictions, which is not allowed by GAAP guidelines. The complaint also alleges that Ormat’s internal controls were not effective. As a result, the Company would be required to restate its financial results for the second, third, and fourth quarter of 2017 as well as the 2017 full-year financial statement. The lawsuit states that Ormat’s public statements were false and misleading based on the facts of the case. When the market learned the true details about the Company, investors suffered damages.
