or contact Reed Kathrein, who is leading the firm’s investigation, by calling 510-725-3000 or emailing

The investigation centers on whether Cadence Bancorp. and its senior management misrepresented the Company’s underwriting practices and credit quality and risk profile of its loan portfolios.

More specifically, on July 22, 2019, the Company delivered disappointing second-quarter earnings due to higher credit costs, including net charge-offs of $18.6 million and loan provisions of $28.9 million.

The “disappointing credit results” shocked the market, as shares of Cadence Bancorp. tumbled 19% over a single trading day.

“We’re focused on investors’ losses and the extent to which the Company and current or former senior executives may have misled investors about the bank’s loan quality and loan loss reserves,” said Hagens Berman partner Reed Kathrein.
