Maiden Holdings, Ltd. (NASDAQGS: MHLD)

Lead Plaintiff Deadline: April 12, 2019
Join the action: https://www.zlk.com/pslra-1/maiden-holdings-ltd-loss-form?wire=3
The complaint alleges that during the Class Period, defendants misrepresented the quality and nature of Maiden’s
underwriting and risk management policies and practices and the risks of its reinsurance portfolio. In particular, defendants
misleadingly claimed that they were subjecting AmTrust’s insurance portfolio to robust analysis and cross-checks to ensure that the
Company had appropriately priced the risk of reinsuring AmTrust’s insurance portfolio. In truth, the Company had failed to employ
sufficient underwriting and risk management protocols and had largely abdicated its responsibility to ensure that its AmTrust
Reinsurance segment priced policies commensurate with the risk assumed by the Company.

class period and/or failed to disclose that: (a) Weight Watchers was experiencing diminished subscriber demand attributable due to
the onslaught of new competing smartphone fitness apps, meal-delivery services, and other tech advances was driving down Weight
Watchers’ new subscriber growth and its subscriber retention rates; (b) diminished subscriber growth, when coupled with the much
larger number of fourth quarter subscription lapses that Weight Watchers typically experiences, made it highly unlikely that the
Company would retain four million subscribers by the end of 2018; (c) Weight Watchers was not on track to grow its subscriber count
to five million or to drive annual revenues to more than $2 billion by the end-of-2020; (d) a decreased subscriber count would
result in decreased revenues and profits; and (e) as a result, Defendants’ statements about Weight Watchers’ business metrics and
