SHAREHOLDER ALERT: Bronstein, Gewirtz & Grossman, LLC Notifies Investors of Class Action Against The Southern Company (SO) and Lead Plaintiff Deadline - March 24, 2017


NEW YORK, Jan. 27, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Attorney Advertising -- Bronstein, Gewirtz & Grossman, LLC notifies investors that a class action lawsuit has been filed against The Southern Company (“Southern Company” or the “Company”) (NYSE:SO) and certain of its officers, on behalf of shareholders who purchased Southern Company securities between April 25, 2012 and October 29, 2013, both dates inclusive (the “Class Period”). Such investors are encouraged to join this case by visiting the firm’s site: http://www.bgandg.com/soc.  

This class action seeks to recover damages against Defendants for alleged violations of the federal securities laws under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.  

The complaint alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and misleading statements and failed to disclose adverse information about the progress of the Kemper Plant, reassuring investors that the project would be completed by the critical May 2014 deadline, even after cost overruns and other delays began to materialize. Once the true details were made known to the investing public, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.
