U.S. Concrete Accused of Deceiving Shareholders in SEC Filings

According to the complaint, in a series of filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, U.S. Concrete officials failed to disclose that the company lacked effective internal controls over financial reporting. The complaint alleges that officers and directors of the company knew of a material weakness regarding the computations of income tax accounts and disclosures, yet purposefully deceived shareholders by omitting this material weakness from the company's public filings. The truth eventually emerged on March 24, 2017, when U.S. Concrete announced that it dismissed its previous auditor, Grant Thornton LLP, and disclosed the resignation of the company's Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, Joseph Tusa, Jr. On this news, U.S. Concrete's stock fell $5.90 per share, or 8.84%, to close at $60.80 per share on March 24, 2017.
