According to the suit, Net 1 issued materially false and misleading statements about the Company's true business and financial condition. In particular, Net 1 failed to disclose or misrepresented that the Company's practices to secure contracts in South Africa were in violation of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. The lawsuit asserts that this adverse information caused the price of Net 1's securities to fall—damaging investors.
