Hagens Berman Reminds DreamWorks Animation SKG, Inc. Investors of Sept. 30, 2014 Lead Plaintiff Class Action Deadline


SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 8, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Hagens Berman Sobol Shapiro LLP, a top-tier investor-rights law firm, advises investors of the Sept. 30, 2014, lead plaintiff deadline in the securities fraud class action against DreamWorks Animation SKG, Inc. (Nasdaq:DWA) ("DreamWorks" or "the Company"). Investors who purchased DreamWorks stock between Oct. 29, 2013 and July 29, 2014 (the "Class Period") may contact Hagens Berman Partner Reed Kathrein, who is leading the firm's investigation, by calling 510-725-3000, emailing DWA@hbsslaw.com or visiting http://hb-securities.com/investigations/DWA.

The complaint, filed in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California on August 1, 2014, and docketed under 2:14-cv-06053, alleges that DreamWorks knowingly delayed the write-down of losses associated with the Company's film Turbo which premiered in June 2013. After months of hiding the truth and artificially inflating stock prices, in February 2014, the DreamWorks finally informed investors that it would write down $13.5 million associated with Turbo losses and on July 29, 2013, the Company revealed that it was under investigation by the SEC for its eight-month delay in informing investors about the write-down.

"DreamWorks Chief Accounting Officer's abrupt departure on May 22, 2014, followed by the announcement that the SEC is investigating the Company's accounting practices for losses associated with Turbo, demonstrate that DreamWorks has adopted a corporate culture that seeks to mislead investors," said Mr. Kathrein.

If you have suffered a loss from your investment in DreamWorks securities purchased on or after October 29, 2013 and would like to learn more about this lawsuit and your ability to participate as a lead plaintiff, please contact us for your no-cost evaluation. No class has yet been certified in the above action. Members of the Class will be represented by the lead plaintiff and counsel chosen by the lead plaintiff.
