AAC Holdings is Accused of Deceiving Investors About a Criminal Investigation
On July 1, 2016, the U.S. District Court Middle District of Tennessee, Nashville Division denied a motion to dismiss a securities fraud class action filed against AAC and certain executives. According to the complaint, AAC deceived investors about an active criminal investigation—of which the company was aware of as early as 2013 and prior to its initial public offering—by the California Department of Justice, which materialized into an indictment against AAC for, among other things, second-degree murder of an AAC patient. The complaint alleges that AAC deliberately disregarded the federal securities laws by concealing the criminal investigation at the time of its initial public offering despite being aware of the facts surrounding the investigation.
