RADNOR, Pa., July 17, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- The law firm of Kessler Topaz Meltzer & Check, LLP alerts investors that a securities fraud class action lawsuit has been filed against CannTrust Holdings Inc. (NYSE: CTST) ("CannTrust") on behalf of those who purchased or otherwise acquired CannTrust securities between November 14, 2018 and July 5, 2019, inclusive (the "Class Period").
Investors who purchased or otherwise acquired CannTrust securities during the Class Period may, no later than September 9, 2019, seek to be appointed as a lead plaintiff representative of the class. For additional information or to learn how to participate in this litigation please visit www.ktmc.com/canntrust-holdings-inc-securities-class-action.
According to the complaint, CannTrust is a licensed producer and distributor of medical and recreational cannabis.
The Class Period commences on November 14, 2018, when CannTrust announced its third quarter 2018 financial results in a press release.
According to the complaint, on July 8, 2019, CannTrust disclosed that its greenhouse facility in Pelham, Ontario is non-compliant with certain regulations, and that CannTrust was growing cannabis in unlicensed rooms between October 2018 and March 2019.
The complaint alleges that, throughout the Class Period, the defendants failed to disclose to investors that: (1) CannTrust was growing cannabis in its Pelham greenhouse while applications for regulatory approval were still pending; (2) CannTrust's Pelham greenhouse did not comply with certain regulations; (3) as a result, CannTrust was reasonably likely to face an inventory hold by Health Canada until the Pelham facility becomes compliant with applicable regulations; (4) as a result, CannTrust's customers would face shortages and would likely seek product from CannTrust's competitors; and (5) as a result of the foregoing, the defendants' positive statements about CannTrust's business, operations, and prospects were materially false and/or misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis.
