NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / December 15, 2017 / Bronstein, Gewirtz & Grossman, LLC notifies investors that a class action lawsuit has been filed against Qudian Inc. ("Qudian" or the "Company") (NYSE: QD) American Depository Shares ("ADSs") and certain of its officers, on behalf of shareholders who purchased pursuant to the Company's initial public offering on or about October 18, 2017 (the "IPO"). Such investors are encouraged to join this case by visiting the firm's site: http://www.bgandg.com/qd.
This class action seeks to recover damages against Defendants for alleged violations of the federal securities laws under the Securities Exchange Act of 1933.
Qudian is a Chinese provider of online micro-lending credit products. Around September 18, 2017, the Company filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") its Registration Statement on Form F-1, and then multiple amendments on Form F-1/A, the last of which was filed on October 13, 2017 and declared effective by the SEC on October 17, 2017. On that day, the Defendants priced the IPO at $24.00 per ADS. On the following day, October 18, 2017, Qudian filed its final prospectus for the IPO, which forms part of the Registration Statement, and the stock began trading on the NYSE under the ticker symbol "QD."
The complaint alleges that Defendants made false and/or misleading statements in the IPO's Registration Statement by failing to disclose that: (1) Qudian's loan collection practices were materially deficient and/or nonexistent as the Company treated bad loans as welfare, and (2) Qudian's data systems and procedures were materially inadequate to safeguard sensitive borrower data against breach, and that breaches had occurred.
At the time the lawsuit was filed, Qudian's ADSs were trading at $13.19, which is roughly 45% lower than the $24.00 IPO price.
