According to the law firm press release, the lawsuit alleges defendants during the Class Period made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) the total amounts of contract costs for certain infrastructure projects were underestimated; (2) the timing in which such contract losses and provisions for contract losses were recorded was improper; and (3) as a result of the foregoing, Toshiba’s public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.

On May 20, 2016, the Court issued an Order granting Defendant's Motion to Dismiss with prejudice. On July 25, Plaintiffs filed a Notice appealing the Court's Dismissal Order. On July 17, 2018, the Court of Appeals issued a memorandum reversing the decision of the District Court and remanding for proceedings consistent with their opinion. On August 8, the Court of Appeals granted Defendant's motion for stay of the issuance of the Court of Appeal's mandate pending the filing of the petition of writ of certiorari in the Supreme Court. The stay shall continue until final disposition by the Supreme Court.
