Law Offices of Howard G. Smith continues its investigation on behalf of Mercury Systems, Inc. (“Mercury” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: MRCY) investors concerning the Company’s possible violations of federal securities laws.
On July 26, 2022, Glasshouse Research published a report detailing how its “analysis on [Mercury Systems] will reveal how management has used accounting gimmicks to obfuscate true economic earnings while concealing the decay of its core company.” Specifically, the report stated that the Company’s management has “prematurely recognized revenue on significant projects boosting both revenue and earnings unsustainably” while also using recent acquisitions to conceal true earnings “with material non-GAAP exclusions,” and that the Company’s free-cash-flow is “grossly overstated as the company has been stifling its vendors to conserve cash.”
On this news, Mercury Systems’ stock price fell $4.87, or 7.8%, to close at $57.26 per share on July 26, 2022, thereby injuring investors.
Then, on August 2, 2022, Mercury Systems reported fourth quarter 2022 revenue of $289.7 million – below the $301.5 million to $321.5 million expected from previous guidance. The Company also reported non-GAAP EPS of $0.81, missing consensus estimates by $0.17.
On this news, Mercury Systems’ stock price fell $7.67, or 13.3%, to close at $49.81 per share on August 3, 2022, thereby injuring investors further.
