The claims asserted include charges based on recently revealed information and investigation that SunPower executives issued misleading quarterly financial reports for 2008 and 2009 and an annual report for fiscal year 2008. Defendants allegedly included unsubstantiated accounting entries relating to cost of goods sold in the company's Philippines operations as well as false and misleading certifications in previous financial reports. These inaccuracies allowed company stock to trade at artificially inflated prices. On Nov. 16, 2009, SunPower filed a report with the SEC stating that because of its accounting errors the previously issued financial statements for 2008 and 2009 were unreliable. News of this filing caused company stock to fall 19 percent, closing at $22.19 per share on Nov. 17, 2009.
