The filed complaint  alleges that throughout the Class Period defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that:

  • the company improperly did not classify Alaska Seismic Ventures, LLC ("ASV") as a variable interest entity;
     
  • the company had a controlling financial interest in ASV, which required the company to consolidate ASV in its financial statements;
     
  • the company had deficient internal controls over financial reporting;
     
  • these practices were likely to lead to an investigation of the company by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”);
     
  • SAExploration would be forced to delay the filing of its quarterly report for the quarter ended June 30, 2019; and
     
  • as a result, defendants' statements about SAExploration's business, operations and prospects were materially false and misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis at all relevant times. 

On August 15, 2019, SAExploration revealed that certain accounting matters that arose in 2015 and 2016 were under investigation by the SEC. The company stated that they would restate its previously issued financial statements for fiscal years 2015 through 2018 and delay filing its SEC Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2019. The company's Chief Executive Officer was placed on administrative leave, and its Chief Financial Officer was terminated from his position.

On this news, SAExploration's share price fell over 33% on August 16, 2019, closing at $2.22 per share.
