NEW YORK–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Please replace the release with the following corrected version due to
multiple revisions.
The corrected release reads:
SECURITIES CLASS ACTION FILED ON BEHALF OF PERSONS OR ENTITIES THAT
TRANSACTED IN OPTIONS OF THE KRAFT HEINZ COMPANY OR CERTAIN RELATED
DERIVATIVES DURING THE PERIOD JULY 6, 2015 THROUGH FEBRUARY 21, 2019,
INCLUSIVE
Entwistle & Cappucci LLP (“Entwistle & Cappucci”) announced it has filed
a securities class action lawsuit on behalf of persons or entities that
purchased call options, sold put options and/or purchased futures of
Kraft Heinz Company (“Kraft Heinz” or the “Company”) during the period
July 6, 2015 through February 21, 2019, inclusive (the “Class Period”).
The case was filed in the United States District Court for the Northern
District of Illinois, Case No. 1:19-cv-02807, against Kraft Heinz and
related defendants (collectively, “Defendants”).
The complaint alleges that, during the Class Period, the Defendants made
materially false and misleading statements and failed to disclose
material adverse facts concerning the Company’s business prospects,
accounting practices and the value of its brands. The subject
misstatements were corrected by a series of partial disclosures, the
most recent of which was the February 21, 2019 announcement that the
Company would be taking a $15.4 billion goodwill impairment.
On May 1, 2019, the Honorable Judge Robert M. Dow, Jr. set a briefing
schedule for the appointment of lead plaintiff. Response/position briefs
