The investigation focuses on possible breaches of fiduciary duty and violations of federal securities laws by Renewable Energy's Board of Directors. Notably, on June 23, 2020, Renewable Energy announced that it anticipated adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization ('EBITDA')", to be in the range of negative $12 million and negative $2 million for the second quarter of 2020, representing a significant departure from the previously projected estimates in the $20 million to $35 million range. The Company attributed this substantial revision to errors and miscalculations in the guidance models used to for the estimates. Following the announcement, Renewable Energy shares tumbled from their June 23 trading high of $28.90 to trade for as low as $22.55 on the following day.

WeissLaw is investigating whether Renewable Energy's Board breached its fiduciary duties to the Company and its shareholders by failing to implement and maintain an effective system of internal controls over its financial reporting process.

WeissLaw LLP has litigated hundreds of stockholder class and derivative actions for violations of corporate and fiduciary duties. We have recovered over a billion dollars for defrauded clients and obtained important corporate governance relief in many of these cases.
