TO DISCUSS THE
SECURITIES INVESTIGATION OR POTENTIAL LEGAL CLAIMS.
On December 4, 2020, a class action lawsuit was filed against Northern Dynasty in United States District Court, Eastern District of New York.
According to class action complaint, throughout the Class Period, the Northern Dynasty defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that the Company’s Pebble Project was contrary to Clean Water Act guidelines and to the public interest; Northern Dynasty planned that the Pebble Project would be larger in duration and scope than conveyed to the public; (3) as a result, the Company’s permit applications for the Pebble Project would be denied by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers; and (4) as a result, the Northern Dynasty Defendants’ public statements were materially false and/or misleading at all relevant times. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit alleges that investors suffered damages.
On November 25, 2020,
Northern Dynasty stated
that “. . . its
100%-owned, US-based subsidiary Pebble Limited Partnership . . . received formal notification from the US Army Corps of Engineers . . . that its application for permits under the
Clean Water Act
and other federal statutes has been denied. The lead federal regulator found Pebble’s ‘compensatory mitigation plan’ as submitted earlier this month to be ‘non-compliant’, and that the project is ‘not in the public interest’.”
On this news, Northern Dynasty’s stock price fell $0.40 per share, or 50%, to close at $0.40 per share on November 25, 2020.
