Robbins Geller Rudman & Dowd LLP Files Class Action Suit Against TeleNav, Inc.
SAN DIEGO - (BUSINESS WIRE) - Robbins Geller Rudman & Dowd LLP ("Robbins Geller" ) (http://www.rgrdlaw.com/cases/telenav/)
today announced that a class action has been commenced in the United
States District Court for the Northern District of California on behalf
of purchasers of TeleNav, Inc. ("TeleNav" ) (NASDAQ:TNAV) common stock
pursuant to the Company's false and misleading Registration Statement
and Prospectus issued in connection with its May 13, 2010 initial public
offering ("IPO" ).
If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later
than 60 days from today. If you wish to discuss this action or have any
questions concerning this notice or your rights or interests, please
contact plaintiff's counsel, Darren Robbins of Robbins Geller at
800-449-4900 or 619-231-1058, or via e-mail at djr@rgrdlaw.com.
If you are a member of this class, you can view a copy of the complaint
as filed or join this class action online at http://www.rgrdlaw.com/cases/telenav/.
Any member of the putative class may move the Court to serve as lead
plaintiff through counsel of their choice, or may choose to do nothing
and remain an absent class member.
The complaint charges TeleNav, certain of its officers and directors and
the underwriters of the IPO with violations of the Securities Act of
1933. TeleNav is a provider of wireless location-based services,
including global positioning system ("GPS" ) navigation, mobile resource
management, asset GPS tracking and local search.
The complaint alleges that on May 13, 2010, TeleNav accomplished its IPO
of 7 million shares of common stock at $8.00 per share for gross
proceeds of $52.4 million to TeleNav (including over-allotments),
pursuant to a false and misleading Registration Statement and Prospectus
(collectively, the "Registration Statement" ). According to the
complaint, the Registration Statement failed to disclose the following
adverse facts: (a) the Company would soon be renegotiating its current
contract for TeleNav to provide Sprint Nextel Corporation ("Sprint" ),
its largest customer, with its Sprint Navigation application, which
would result in lower overall revenues to TeleNav; (b) the unwillingness
of Sprint to continue with the same contract terms beyond December 31,
2010 would not only mean lower revenues from Sprint, but had negative
implications for TeleNav's other wireless relationships; and (c) adverse
changes to the Sprint relationship would cause TeleNav's results to
trend adversely compared to the trends included in the Registration
Statement.
On July 29, 2010, TeleNav announced its fourth quarter fiscal 2010
results and disclosed that it had started negotiations regarding
contract roll-over with Sprint early, and if successful, the contract
roll-over would probably lead to an aggregate reduction in revenue from
its largest customer. On this news, TeleNav's stock price fell $3.47 per
share, to close at $5.44 per share on July 30, 2010, a one-day decline
of 39% on high volume. The stock continued to decline to below $5 per
share over the next few weeks as investors absorbed the implications of
TeleNav's announcement.
Plaintiff seeks to recover damages on behalf of all purchasers of
TeleNav common stock pursuant to the Registration Statement issued in
connection with the Company's May 13, 2010 IPO (the "Class" ). The
plaintiff is represented by Robbins Geller, which has expertise in
prosecuting investor class actions and extensive experience in actions
involving financial fraud.
