Case Status:    DISMISSED    
On or around 03/14/2017 (Court's order of dismissal)

Filing Date: November 11, 2016

According to the law firm press release, Pattern Energy Group, Inc. ("Pattern") operates as an independent power company that owns and operates power projects in the United States, Canada, and Chile. As of October 18, 2016, the Company had a portfolio of 18 wind power projects with a total owned capacity of 2,644 MW. Pattern sells electricity and renewable energy credits primarily to local utilities and local liquid independent system organizations markets.

The Complaint alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and/or misleading statements, as well as failed to disclose material adverse facts about the Company’s business, operations, and prospects. Specifically, Defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (i) Pattern’s operations were deficient with respect to various transaction, process level, and monitoring controls; (ii) as a result, Pattern lacked effective internal financial controls; and (iii) as a result of the foregoing, Pattern’s public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times.

On November 7, 2016, Pattern announced its financial and operating results for the quarter ended September 30, 2016 and disclosed a material weakness in internal controls over financial reporting. Pattern stated that its internal controls were “not effective as of September 30, 2016, due to the aggregation of internal control deficiencies related to the implementation, design, maintenance and operating effectiveness of various transaction, process level, and monitoring controls.”

On this news, Pattern’s share price fell $0.76, or 3.52%, to close at $20.86 on November 7, 2016.

On January 13, 2017, the Court issued an Order appointing Lead Plaintiffs and Counsel.

This case was voluntarily dismissed on March 14, 2017.
