BOCA RATON, FL--(Marketwire - Jun 12, 2012) - Saxena White P.A. has filed a securities fraud class action lawsuit in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts against ModusLink Global Solutions, Inc. ("ModusLink" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: MLNK) on behalf of investors who purchased or otherwise acquired the common stock of the Company during the period from September 26, 2007 through June 8, 2012 (the "Class Period").

ModusLink provides supply chain management services and solutions. On June 11, 2012, the Company announced that it would need to restate financial results going back to 2007 and that its Audit Committee investigation found that certain client contracts were consistently misaligned with the Company's practice of retaining volume discounts. Additionally, the Committee found instances where vendor costs incurred were marked up to clients inconsistent with contracts.

Concurrently with these stunning announcements, the Company also disclosed that the Securities and Exchange Commission had launched an inquiry into these matters, and that ModusLink's President and Chief Executive Officer, Defendant Joseph C. Lawler, was immediately resigning from his positions with ModusLink and the Company's Board of Directors. In addition, the Company also announced the immediate departure of William R. McLennan, President, Global Operations for ModusLink.
