According to the complaint the plaintiff alleges that Constellation Energy Group, Inc. and certain of its officers and directors and its underwriters violated the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the Securities Act of 1933. Specifically the complaint alleges that due to defendants’ positive, but false, statements, Constellation’s stock closed as high as $88.25 per share on June 9th, 2008 and on June 27th, 2008, defendants consummated the sale of Constellation Energy Group, Inc.’s Preferred Securities pursuant to the false and misleading Registration Statement, selling 18 million shares at $25.00 per share for proceeds of approximately $435.8 million. In July 2008 Constellation Energy Group, Inc. reported favorable financial results and reaffirmed EPS guidance of 5.75 per share for 2008. But in August 2008, analysts questioned Constellation Energy Group, Inc.’s accounting and the implications of a credit downgrade. Then, on September 15th, 2008, investors and the market became aware of Constellation Energy Group, Inc.’s exposure to Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc.’s bankruptcy, which affected the Constellation Energy Group, Inc. ‘s ability to engage in energy-related trades and as a result of this news Constellation Energy Group, Inc.’s shares dropped to $47.99 or a 50% decline from the Constellation Energy Group, Inc.’s high of $97.34 per share between January 30th, 2008 and September 16th, 2008, so the lawsuit. The plaintiff alleges that the defendants were aware of the material undisclosed information which contradicted their public statements.
