LOS ANGELES, Oct. 18, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Lundin Law PC, a shareholder rights firm, announces the filing of a class action lawsuit against J. Jill, Inc. ("J. Jill" or the "Company") (NYSE: JILL) concerning possible violations of federal securities laws relating to its initial public offering on March 9, 2017 (the "IPO").

According to the Complaint, the Registration Statement filed in connection with the IPO contained false and misleading information because J. Jill's purportedly unique and superior sales and marketing approach had not insulated the Company from adverse trends affecting the overall retail industry, like it claimed. The Company was carrying increasing amounts of slow moving inventory and would need to significantly markdown sale items and increase promotional efforts in an attempt to continue its sales growth. Also, the Company's brick-and-mortar stores were experiencing difficulty attracting customers and maintaining profitability, which would result in the Company closing up to eight stores in fiscal 2017 - thereby diminishing the Company's gross margins and impairing its ability to service its long-term debt. Since the IPO, shares of J. Jill have fallen more than 62%, which has caused investors harm according to the Complaint.

Lundin Law PC was founded by Brian Lundin, Esq., a securities litigator based in Los Angeles dedicated to upholding shareholders' rights.

This press release may be considered Attorney Advertising in some jurisdictions under the applicable law and ethical rules.
