During the month of March 2020, Hallmark’s shares plummeted after a series of announcements.

Next, on March 11, 2020, Hallmark announced that it had fired its public accounting firm over “a disagreement.” On this news, the stock fell from $8.10 to $5.71 per share. Then on March 17, 2020, Hallmark filed a letter with the SEC indicating that the former public accounting firm had “expanded significantly the scope of its audit on January 31, 2020.” On this news, the stock fell to just $3.12 per share.
The lawsuit was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas.
