Philadelphia, Pennsylvania--(Newsfile Corp. - July 27, 2023) - Grabar Law Office is investigating claims on behalf of shareholders who purchased Party City Holdco Inc. shares between November 8, 2022 and June 9, 2023 (NYSE: PRTY) (OTC: PRTYQ).
On November 8, 2022, Party City filed its Form 10-Q with the SEC for the third quarter ended September 30, 2022. From that point, through June 9, 2023, when Ernst & Young LLP ("E&Y") resigned as the Company's auditor due to a disagreement about the Company's decision not to include a "going concern" warning in the Q3 2022 10-Q, we believe that Defendants made or caused to be made misleading statements and omissions concerning the Company's financial strength. Specifically, in the Q3 2022 10-Q, the Company: (i) affirmatively misrepresented that its capital resources "will be adequate to meet our liquidity needs for at least the next 12 months"; (ii) omitted that there was substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern; (iii) omitted that the Company was experiencing significant liquidity challenges; (iv) omitted that the Company's existing credit facilities were insufficient to satisfy its operations and that it was unable to obtain additional loans in the normal course of business; and (v) omitted that there were material weaknesses in its internal controls over financial reporting.
As a result of these alleged misleading statements and omissions, the Company's stock price was artificially inflated throughout the Class Period. When the truth was revealed through a series of partial corrective disclosures, the Company's stock price declined, causing compensable damages to shareholders.
