NEW YORK, July 27, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Lowey Dannenberg P.C., a preeminent law firm in obtaining redress for consumers and investors is investigating possible violations of federal securities laws on behalf of investors of Renewable Energy Group, Inc. (Renewable Energy or the Company) (NASDAQ: REGI).

Renewable Energy provides lower carbon transportation fuels in the United States and internationally. The company utilizes an integrated production, distribution, and logistics system to convert natural fats, oils, and greases into advanced biofuels.

On June 23, 2020, Renewable Energy issued a press release announc[ing] that the Companys second quarter 2020 Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be negative $12 million and negative $2 million, down from the range of $20 million to $35 million that the Company had previously announced on April 30, 2020. The Company explained its significantly revised outlook by telling investors that [t]he guidance model used in connection with the previous estimate contained inadvertent calculation errors, which on their own would have resulted in a significant reduction in the Companys previous Adjusted EBITDA estimate.

On this news, the stock price fell from $28.58 on June 23, 2020 to $22.73 on June 24, 2020, a drop of $5.85 per share, or 20.47%.
