[ Business | US Market | Industry | IPO | S&P | Int'l | PRNews | BizWire | Finance Home ] Friday June 12, 5:22 pm Eastern Time Company Press Release Class Action Filed Against Manugistics Group, Inc. and Others NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 12, 1998--Notice is hereby given that a class action lawsuit was filed today in the United States District Court for the District of Maryland, Southern Division, on behalf of all persons who purchased or otherwise acquired the common stock of Manugistics Group, Inc. (NASDAQ:MANU - news; ''Manugistics'' or the ''Company''), between February 13, 1998 and May 22, 1998, inclusive (the ''Class Period''). The complaint charges Manugistics and certain officers and directors of the Company during the relevant time period with violations of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The complaint alleges that defendants issued a series of materially false and misleading statements concerning the Company's business, operations and sales. Because of the issuance of a series of false and misleading statements, the price of Manugistics common stock was artificially inflated during the Class Period. Prior to the disclosure of the adverse facts described above, certain officers and directors of Manugistics sold significant amounts of Manugistics common stock to the unsuspecting investing public. These sales generated proceeds in excess of $6.7 million. In addition to these profitable insider sales, Manugistics was able to use its artificially inflated stock as currency to complete a significant acquisition.
