Law Offices of Howard G. Smith reminds investors of the upcoming
deadline in the class action lawsuit filed in the United States
District Court for the Northern District of Texas on behalf of a
class (the “Class”) of purchasers of the securities of Trinity
Industries, Inc. (“Trinity” or the “Company”) (NYSE: TRN) between
February 16, 2012 and April 23, 2015, inclusive (the “Class
Period”). Trinity investors have until June 29, 2015 to file a
motion to be appointed as lead plaintiff in the shareholder
lawsuit.
Trinity is a diversified industrial company that owns a variety
of businesses that provides products and services to the energy,
transportation, chemical, and construction sectors.
The Complaint alleges that throughout the Class Period,
Defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to
disclose that: (1) Trinity engaged in cost-cutting alterations to
its ET-Plus guardrails; (2) the safety of its units was compromised
as a result of the alterations; (3) the crash tests on Trinity’s
products may have been flawed; and (4) Trinity faces additional
civil and criminal liabilities as a result of the flawed crash
tests. As a result of the foregoing, Defendants’ statements about
Trinity’s business, operations, and prospects, were false and
misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis in that the Company’s
liabilities were understated, and its financial projections were
overstated.
After the market closed on April 21, 2015, an article published
on Bloomberg stated that the U.S. Justice Department is
investigating the Federal Highway Agency’s support of Trinity’s
highway guardrail system. On this news, Trinity shares declined
$3.43 per share, over 9%, to close at $32.82 per share on April 22,
2015. On April 24, 2015, the Company confirmed the initiation of
the federal investigation in a conference call with investors. On
this news, Trinity shares declined an additional $4.66 per share,
or 14%, to close at $28.70 per share on April 24, 2015.
If you purchased shares of Trinity during the Class Period, have
information or would like to learn more about these claims, or have
any questions concerning this announcement or your rights or
interests with respect to these matters, please contact Howard G.
