NEW YORK, Aug. 14, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Klein Law Firm announces that class action complaints have been
filed on behalf of shareholders of the following companies. If you suffered a loss you have until the lead plaintiff deadline to
request that the court appoint you as lead plaintiff.
Glencore plc (OTCMKTS: GLNCY, GLCNF)
Class Period: September 30, 2016 to July 2, 2018
Lead Plaintiff Deadline: September 7, 2018
The lawsuit alleges that throughout the class period, Glencore plc made materially false and/or misleading
statements and/or failed to disclose that: (i) Glencore’s conduct would subject it to heightened scrutiny by U.S. and foreign
government bodies resulting in investigations into the company’s compliance with money laundering and bribery laws, as well as the
Foreign Corrupt Practices Act; and (ii) as a result, defendants’ statements about Glencore’s business, operations, and prospects
were materially false and/or misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis at all relevant times.
On May 18, 2018, Bloomberg reported that the U.K.'s Serious Fraud Office was preparing to open a formal bribery
investigation into Glencore. Then on July 3, 2018, Glencore disclosed that the U.S. Department of Justice issued its subsidiary a
subpoena to produce documents and other records in connection with its compliance with U.S. money laundering statutes and the
Foreign Corrupt Practices Act.

to disclose that: (1) Sibanye’s safety protocols were inadequate to prevent a high rate of worker death; (2) Sibanye’s mining
supervisors routinely forced Company employees to work in unsafe and unlawful conditions; the foregoing issues would foreseeably

Newell Brands Inc. (NYSE: NWL)
Class Period: February 6, 2017 to January 24, 2018
Lead Plaintiff Deadline: August 20, 2018
The complaint alleges that during the class period Newell Brands Inc. made materially false and/or misleading
statements and/or failed to disclose that: (i) the Company’s retail channel was loaded with extremely high levels of unsold Newell
product; (ii) contrary to defendants’ representations, the build-up of Newell inventory in the retail channel was due to
Company-specific rather than macroeconomic reasons; (iii) as a result of the unusually high levels of unsold inventory in the
retail channel, Newell was exposed to a heightened risk that it would experience slower sales growth in future periods; and (iv)
undisclosed managerial and cultural differences in the legacy Newell and Jarden businesses had created significant discord that was
having a material adverse effect on the Company’s operating performance.

Flex Pharma, Inc. (NASDAQ: FLKS)
Class Period: November 6, 2017 to June 12, 2018
Lead Plaintiff Deadline: August 20, 2018
The lawsuit alleges that Flex Pharma, Inc. made materially false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to
disclose that: (i) the Company overstated the viability and approval prospects for its product candidate FLX-787 for the treatment
of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease; and (ii) as a result, Flex's public statements were materially
false and misleading at all relevant times.
On June 13, 2018, Flex announced that it planned to halt its FLX-787 trials, citing oral tolerability concerns
observed in both studies. Flex also said that it will restructure its organization to reduce costs, including reducing its
workforce by approximately 60%, and that Flex's Board is exploring "strategic alternatives, including the potential sale or merger
of the company." Following this news, Flex stock dropped $3.14 per share, or 75.12%, to close at $1.04 on June 13, 2018.

Facebook, Inc. (NASDAQ: FB)
Class Period: October 1, 2017 to July 26, 2018
Lead Plaintiff Deadline: September 25, 2018
The complaint alleges that throughout the class period Facebook, Inc. made materially false and/or misleading
statements and/or failed to disclose that: (i) the implementation of the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”), which was
adopted by the European Union on or around April 14, 2016, would have a foreseeable and materially negative impact on use of the
Platform, revenue growth, and profitability because the informed consent required by the GDPR resulted in many users rejecting
Facebook’s privacy policies and/or procedures and exposed a significant number of fake accounts on the platform; (ii) by May 25,
2018, Facebook’s Platform use and revenue growth had already begun to decline as a result of Facebook’s efforts to comply with the
GDPR; (iii) the decline in Facebook’s Platform use and the increase in costs as a result of complying with the GDPR had a
materially adverse effect on Facebook’s financial health, including its revenue and projected growth; and (iv) as a result,
Facebook’s public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times.
