The Complaint alleges that during the Class Period, Citizens Financial violated federal securities laws by making materially false and misleading public statements. On March 29, 2017, the Wall Street Journal reported that some Citizens Financial employees admitted that Company employees faked “financial checkup” meetings with customers due to pressure within the Company to meet expectations related to the program. Citizens Financial claimed that the “Citizens Checkup” program resulted in 400,000 scheduled appointments in 2016, but the report stated that at least some of these appointments were fabricated. When this news was released, shares of Citizens Financial fell in value, which caused investors harm.
