Class Action Lawsuit Against Countrywide Financial Corp. On Behalf of Investors
Filed Under (Mortgage) by admin

Countrywide Financial Corp. Class Action Lawsuit On Behalf of Investors. According to the complaint, during the Class Period, defendants made false and misleading statements regarding the changing quality of the Company’s mortgage loan portfolio. As late as April of 2007, the Company stated that credit rating agency Moody’s upgraded the rating of the Company’s banking segment and announced that its home loans segment was also under review for possible upgrade. Then, on June 12, 2007, the Company boasted of its position as the number one mortgage originator in the United States. These reassuring announcements served to conceal the alarming growth of loan delinquencies and the increasing likelihood of impairment charges, with resulting adverse impacts on the quality of the Company’s collateralized debt obligations (CDO’s), earnings and profits.

On July 24, 2007, the Company finally announced the shocking news, of over $417 million in impairment charges and implementation of a $292.9 million loan loss provision. On the news, the price of Countrywide Financial stock tumbled 10.4%, closing at $30.50 per share. Following this, on August 9, 2007, within four days of reassuring statements that purported the reliability and availability of liquidity to meet short-term needs, the Company adopted a new risk disclosure, warning of short-term liquidity issues. As a result, on that day, the price of Countrywide Financial stock fell again, losing $1.00 or 3.4%, to close at $27.86 per share, on heavy volume of over 48.6 million shares.
