According to the Complaint, throughout the Class Period, Patriot National made materially false and misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: the Company’s special committee was beholden to CEO Steve Mariano, therefore the special committee was operating for the benefit of Mariano and not Patriot National or its shareholders; that the special committee did not independently assess the merits of the Ebix transaction; that the special committee was not exploring strategic alternatives in order to maximize shareholder value; and that as a result of the above, Patriot's statements about its business, operations, and prospects were false and misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis. When this information was released, shares of Patriot National fell in value.

Lundin Law PC was founded by Brian Lundin, a securities litigator based in Los Angeles dedicated to upholding shareholders’ rights.
