What is this Case About: Tattooed Chef, Inc. (TTCF) Misstated its Financials Due to Material Weaknesses in Internal Control
According to the complaint, defendants failed to disclose that Tattooed Chef continuously downplayed its serious issues with internal controls and its financial statements from March 31, 2021 to the present included “certain errors” such as overstating revenue and understating losses. As a result, Tattooed Chef would need to restate its previously filed financial statements for certain periods.
On October 12, 2022, after market hours, the Company announced that it would restate its financial statements from March 31, 2021 to the present and revealed for the first time it had misstated revenue on each quarterly report. The Company also made numerous other changes in financial statements that revealed the extent of internal control weaknesses. Specifically, Tattooed Chef “(a) incorrectly recorded expenses related to a multi-vendor mailer program with a large customer as operating expenses rather than as a reduction of revenue, and (b) incorrectly recorded expenses for advertising placement by a marketing services firm on a straight-line basis over the life of the contract rather than when the services were actually rendered.” On this news, Tattooed Chef’s share price fell $0.44 per share, or 9.8%, to close at $4.05 per share on October 13, 2022.
