RADNOR, Pa., Aug. 22, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The law firm of Kessler Topaz Meltzer & Check, LLP reminds Electronics For Imaging, Inc. (Nasdaq:EFII) (“Electronics For Imaging” or the “Company”) shareholders that a class action lawsuit has been filed in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey against Electronics For Imaging on behalf of purchasers of the Company’s securities between February 22, 2017 and August 3, 2017, inclusive (the “Class Period”).  

Important Deadline Reminder:  Electronics For Imaging shareholders who purchased securities during the Class Period may, no later than October 10, 2017, seek to be appointed as a lead plaintiff representative of the class.  For additional information or to learn how to participate in this action please visit www.ktmc.com/new-cases/electronics-for-imaging-inc#join.

Electronics For Imaging designs and markets products that support color and black-and-white printing on a variety of peripheral devices. 

The shareholder class action complaint alleges that Electronics For Imaging and certain of its executive officers made a series of false and misleading statements and/or failed to disclose to investors that: (1) Electronics For Imaging was improperly recognizing revenue; (2) Electronics For Imaging’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective; (3) Electronics For Imaging’s internal control over financial reporting were not effective; and (4) as a result, Electronics For Imaging’s public statements were  materially false and misleading at all relevant times.

On August 3, 2017, Electronics For Imaging announced that it was postponing a scheduled investor conference call “in order to enable the Company to complete an assessment of the timing of recognition of revenue.”  Additionally, the Company disclosed that it “expects to report a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting,” and that its “disclosure controls were not effective in prior periods.”

Following this news, shares of the Company’s stock fell $21.61 per share, or over 45%, to close on August 4, 2017 at $26.05, on heavy trading volume.
