VEOLIA ENVIRON. : Veolia Environnement : Class Action Filing in the United States
01/06/2012 | 03:15am
Regulatory News:
Veolia Environnement (Paris:VIE) has become aware that a purported class
action complaint has been filed against the Company and certain of its
current and former officers, in the United States District Court for the
Southern District of New York. The complaint alleges that certain
financial communications of the Company between 2007 and 2011 were
misleading, purportedly resulting in violations of Section 10(b) of the
US Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and other federal securities laws.
The complaint has not been served on the Company. However, Veolia
considers that any allegation that its financial communications may have
been misleading is without merit, and the Company intends to seek the
dismissal of the complaint.
