The Complaint alleges that, throughout the Class Period, defendants made numerous positive statements regarding the Company's financial condition, business and prospects. The complaint further alleges that these statements were materially false and misleading because defendants failed to disclose the following adverse facts, among others: (a) that the K&G division was performing poorly and not meeting internal expectations; (b) that the Company was experiencing significant difficulties integrating the After Hours acquisition which was causing a severe disruption in that division's business and reducing sales volumes below budgeted levels; (c) that, given the deteriorating demand for the Company's products, the Company was forced to significantly discount products beyond customary discounts which would further erode earnings; and (d) that as a result of the foregoing, defendants' positive statements concerning the Company's guidance and prospects were lacking in a reasonable basis at all relevant times.
