Comtech Telecommunications Corp. (CMTL) Investigation:

Comtech Telecommunications Corp. shares are trading down nearly 40% over the last week after the company sacked its CEO for cause and delivered disappointing quarterly results. The timing and circumstances of these recent events have prompted Hagens Berman, a prominent investors’ rights law firm, to open an investigation into potential violations of the U.S. securities laws.

The Melville, NY-based communications company surprised investors on Mar. 13, 2024, when it announced that its Board of Directors had fired President & CEO Ken Peterman for cause and stated Peterman will also no longer serve on the company’s board. In the press release, current board member and newly elected board chair Mark Quinlan said, “The board is committed to upholding the highest standards of ethical and professional conduct.”  

Though the company claimed Peterman’s firing was unrelated to the company’s business strategy or financial results, the company also announced that it would not timely file its quarterly financial statements with the SEC. Peterson’s termination also came just two days after Ellen M. Lord, a member of the Audit Committee, resigned from her position on the Board of Directors.  

Then, on Mar. 18, 2024, Comtech reported dismal Q2 2024 financial results. For the quarter, Comtech posted a per share non-GAAP loss of $0.15, which badly missed consensus estimates by about $0.35 (or about 130%).

These events have caused Comtech shares to decline sharply.

“We’re investigating whether Comtech and its management may have made misrepresentations and omissions to investors,” said Reed Kathrein, the Hagens Berman partner leading the firm’s investigation.
