Longwei is an energy company engaged in the wholesale distribution of finished petroleum products in the People’s Republic of China. The Complaint alleges that throughout the Class Period, defendants made materially false and misleading statements, and omitted materially adverse facts, about the Company’s business, operations and prospects. Specifically, the Complaint alleges that: (1) the Company exaggerated its November 2012 sales figures for its fuel depot storage facilities in Taiyuan and Gujiao, Shanxi; (2) defendants failed to disclose a $32 million investment in a tourism business made by Longwei’s subsidiary, Shanxi Zhinghe Energy Conversion Co., Ltd.; and (3) as a result of the foregoing, the Company’s statements regarding its business, operations and financial performance were materially false and misleading at all relevant times. As a result of defendants’ false and misleading statements, the Company’s stock traded at artificially inflated prices during the Class Period.
