The complaint alleges that Aeropostale and certain of its officers and directors issued materially false and misleading statements regarding the Company's business and prospects. Specifically, the complaint alleges that defendants misrepresented and/or failed to disclose that: (a) Aeropostale was experiencing declining demand for its women's fashion division, which makes up 70% of the Company's sales; (b) due to increasing inventory and higher clothing discounts, the Company was enduring pressure on its profit margins; and (c) as a result of the foregoing, defendants lacked a reasonable basis for their positive statements about the Company and its prospects.
On August 4, 2011, Aeropostale announced net earnings of between $0.02 and $0.03 per share for the second quarter of 2010, well below the Company's guidance of $0.11 to $0.16 per share. Upon this news, shares of Aeropostale stock fell more than 20% to close at $12.53 per share.
