What this case is about: Tattooed Chef, Inc. (TTCF) misreported its financials due to material deficiencies in internal control
According to the complaint, the defendants did not disclose that Tattooed Chef has continuously downplayed its serious problems with internal controls and its financial statements for March 31, 2021 to date included “some errors” such as overreporting revenues and underreporting losses. As a result, Tattooed Chef would have had to reformulate its previously filed financial statements for certain periods.
On October 12, 2022, after market hours, the Company announced it would restate its financial statements for March 31, 2021 to date and disclosed for the first time that it had reported misrepresented revenue in each quarterly report. The Company also made numerous other changes to the financial statements that revealed the extent of internal control weaknesses. Specifically, Tattooed Chef “(a) misreported expenses related to a multi-vendor mailer with a large client as an operating expense rather than a decrease in revenue, and (b) misreported placement expenses advertising by a marketing services firm on a linear basis for the duration of the contract rather than when the services have actually been rendered.” At this news, Tattooed Chef’s stock price fell $0.44 per share, or 9.8%, to close at $4.05 per share on October 13, 2022.
