SHAREHOLDER ALERT: Brower Piven Encourages Investors Who Have Losses in Excess of $100,000 From Investment in Marrone Bio Innovations, Inc. to Contact Brower Piven Before the November 4, 2014 Lead Plaintiff Deadline in Class Action Lawsuit -- MBII


STEVENSON, Md., Sept. 29, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The securities litigation law firm of Brower Piven, A Professional Corporation, announces that a class action lawsuit has been commenced in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of California on behalf of purchasers of Marrone Bio Innovations, Inc. ("Marrone" or the "Company") (Nasdaq:MBII) securities during the period between March 6, 2014 and September 2, 2014, inclusive (the "Class Period").

If you have suffered a loss from investment in Marrone securities purchased on or after March 6, 2014 and held through the revelation of negative information during and/or at the end of the Class Period, as described below, and would like to learn more about this lawsuit and your ability to participate as a lead plaintiff, without cost or obligation to you, please visit our website at http://www.browerpiven.com/currentsecuritiescases.html. You may also request more information by contacting Brower Piven either by email at hoffman@browerpiven.com or by telephone at (410) 415-6616. 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.

If you wish to choose counsel to represent you and the Class, you must apply to be appointed lead plaintiff no later than November 4, 2014 and be selected by the Court. The lead plaintiff will direct the litigation and participate in important decisions including whether to accept a settlement and how much of a settlement to accept for the Class in the action. The lead plaintiff will be selected from among applicants claiming the largest loss from investment in Company units during the Class Period. Brower Piven also encourages anyone with information regarding the Company's conduct during the period in question to contact the firm, including whistleblowers, former employees, shareholders and others.

The complaint accuses the defendants of violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 by virtue of the defendants' failure to disclose during the Class Period that Marrone's financial statements contained errors related to the improper recognition of revenues and that the Company lacked adequate internal controls over financial reporting.

According to the complaint, following the Company's September 3, 2014 announcement that some of its previously issued financial statements should no longer be relied upon as being in compliance with generally accepted accounting principles, the value of Marrone shares declined significantly.

Attorneys at Brower Piven have extensive experience in litigating securities and other class action cases and have been advocating for the rights of shareholders since the 1980s. If you choose to retain counsel, you may retain Brower Piven without financial obligation or cost to you, or you may retain other counsel of your choice. You need take no action at this time to be a member of the class.
