Case Summary:

GTT Communications, Inc. is paying $25 million to resolve a class action alleging it violated Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the associated Rule 10b-5. The case relates to GTT’s acquisition of Interoute Communications Holdings SA, a European telecommunications company. The complaint alleged that GTT made false and misleading statements, claiming that the acquisition was strategic for GTT and that the integration of the company was “on track.” Other false and misleading statements, the complaint alleged, involved GTT’s statements about its financial controls and accuses the company of accounting manipulations that hid the negative impact of the Interoute integration on GTT.
