Ubiquiti develops technology latforms for high-capacity distributed
Internet access, unified information technology, and next-generation
consumer electronics for home and personal use. The Company does not
employ a traditional sales force. Instead, it purports to "drive[] brand
awareness largely through the company's user community where customers
can interface directly with R&D, marketing, and support." The Company
calls this user community the "Ubiquiti Community."
The Complaint alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants made
materially false and misleading statements regarding the Company's
business, operational and compliance policies. Specifically, Defendants
made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that:
(i) the number of the Company's purported user community was drastically
overstated; (ii) Ubiquiti had exaggerated its publicly reported accounts
receivable; and (iii) as a result of the foregoing, Ubiquiti's publicly
disseminated financial statements were materially false and misleading.
On September 18, 2017, Citron Research ("Citron") issued a report
entitled "Cintron Exposes Ubiquiti Networks," (the "Citron Report") in
which Citron detailed a series of "alarming red flags," indicating that
the Company had been deceiving investors and was engaged in "corporate
fraud," including, among other things, that the Company had
misrepresented the size of its purported "Ubiquiti Community", as well
as its levels of accounts receivable, among other things.
On February 20, 2018, Ubiquiti filed a form 8-K with the Securities and
Exchange Commission stating, in material part: "On February 13, 2018,
the Securities and Exchange Commission (the 'SEC' (News - Alert)) issued subpoenas to
Ubiquiti Networks, Inc. (the 'Company') and certain of the Company's
officers requesting documents and information relating to a range of
topics, including metrics relating to the Ubiquiti Community, accounting
practices, financial information, auditors, international trade
practices, and relationships with distributors and various other third
parties."
On the news of the SEC subpoenas, Ubiquiti's share price fell more than
25 percent, from $74.04 at the close of the prior trading day, to close
at $55.28 on February 20, 2018.
