Filing Date: February 14, 2019

According to the Complaint, Bristow Group Inc. is an industrial aviation services provider with major transportation operations in the North Sea, Nigeria and the Gulf of Mexico, and in most other major offshore energy producing regions of the world.

The Complaint alleges that during the Class Period, Defendants failed to disclose to investors: (1) that the Company lacked adequate monitoring processes related to non-financial covenants within its secured financing and lease agreements; (2) that, as a result, the Company could not reasonably assure compliance with certain non-financial covenants; (3) that, as a result, the Company was reasonably likely to breach certain agreements; (4) that, as a result, the Company had understated its short-term debt; (5) the required corrections would materially impact financial statements; (6) that there was a material weakness in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting; and (7) that, as a result of the foregoing, Defendants’ positive statements about the Company’s business, operations, and prospects were materially misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis.

On May 14, 2019, the Court issued an Order consolidating cases and appointing Lead Plaintiffs and Counsel. Lead Plaintiffs filed a consolidated amended Complaint on November 4. On January 27, 2021, the parties entered into a Stipulation and Agreement of Settlement. The Court granted preliminary approval of the Settlement on February 5. On August 6, the Court granted final approval of the Settlement and entered Final Judgment.

On March 9, 2023, the Court issued an Order approving distribution of the Settlement funds.
