According to the complaint the plaintiff alleges that Rentech, Inc and certain of its officers and directors violated the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 by issuing between February 8, 2008 and December 15, 2009 false and/or misleading statements, and failing to disclose material adverse facts about its business, operations, and prospects. Then on December 14, 2009, Rentech, Inc announced that it would restate its previously reported annual and quarterly results for fiscal year 2008 and for the first three quarters of fiscal year 2009, to correct “a prior incorrect classification of cash deposits required by forward gas purchase contracts as inventory, and reclassifies them as deposits on gas purchase contracts within current assets on the balance sheet.” The plaintiff alleges that as a result of this news, Rentech, Inc stock (RTK) fell approximately 11% on unusually heavy trading volume from its December 14, 2009, closing price of $1.64 per share, to close on December 16, 2009, at $1.47 per share and the price of Rentech stock (RTK) has declined more than 22% since the disclosure of its improper accounting practices.
