Law Offices of Howard G. Smith announces that a class action lawsuit has been filed on behalf of investors that purchased Skechers U.S.A., Inc. (“Skechers” or the “Company”) (NYSE: SKX) securities between April 23, 2015 and October 22, 2015, inclusive (the “Class Period”). Skechers investors have until December 22, 2017 to file a lead plaintiff motion.

Investors suffering losses on their Skechers investments are encouraged to contact the Law Offices of Howard G. Smith to discuss their legal rights in this class action at 888-638-4847 or by email to howardsmith@howardsmithlaw.com.

On April 23, 2015, Skechers issued a press release announcing financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2015. During a related earnings call, CFO David Weinberg made positive statements about sales and customer demand. Then on October 22, 2015, Skechers announced financial results for the third quarter 2015, including disappointing net sales that missed analyst estimates.

On this news, Skechers’ share price fell $14.55, or more than 31%, to close at $31.64 per share on October 23, 2015, thereby injuring investors.

The complaint filed in this class action alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and misleading statements regarding the Company's business, operational and compliance policies. Specifically, Defendants failed to disclose that: (i) the Company's Domestic Wholesale customers took early receipt of fall 2015 inventory, causing them to delay receipt of and, in some cases, cancel pending orders scheduled for delivery in the second half of 2015; (ii) as a result of the foregoing, the Company's Domestic Wholesale growth rate was unsustainable; and (iii) as a result of the foregoing, Skechers' public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times.

If you purchased shares of Skechers, have information or would like to learn more about these claims, or have any questions concerning this announcement or your rights or interests with respect to these matters, please contact Howard G. Smith, Esquire, of Law Offices of Howard G.
