Power Solutions Accused of Improperly Recognizing Revenue

According to the complaint, on August 15, 2016, Power Solutions filed a Form 8-K with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission disclosing that there was an ongoing internal review of allegations made by a former employee relating to certain transactions involving revenue recognition. On January 5, 2017, Power Solutions stated in its Form 8-K that, based on the results of the review, its financial statements for the second through fourth quarters of 2015, fiscal year 2015, and the first quarter of 2016 should no longer be relied upon and would need to be restated. In regard to its 2015 financial results, Power Solutions admitted that the company improperly recognized at least $18 million in revenue and that it had a material weakness in its internal controls over financial reporting. On February 3, 2017, Power Solutions announced that its financial statements for fiscal year 2014 and the first quarter of 2015 should no longer be relied upon. Power Solutions also announced the resignation of its Chief Financial Officer, Michael P. Lewis, and RSM, which stated that it could no longer rely on management's representations. On April 18, 2017, Power Solutions revealed in a Form 8-K that NASDAQ had delisted its stock due to the company's failure to file accurate and timely financial results.
