INVESTOR ALERT: Law Offices of Howard G. Smith Announces Investigation on Behalf of XPO Logistics, Inc. Investors (XPO)


Law Offices of Howard G. Smith announces an investigation on behalf of XPO Logistics, Inc. investors ("XPO" or the "Company") (NYSE: XPO) concerning the Company and its officers' possible violations of federal securities laws.

On December 12, 2018, Spruce Point Capital Management ("Spruce Point") published a report asserting that a "forensic investigation" into XPO had revealed "financial irregularities that conveniently cover [the Company's] growing financial strain and inability to complete additional acquisitions despite repeated promises." Specifically, Spruce Point reported that it had discovered, amog other issues, "concrete evidence to suggest dubious tax accounting, under-reporting of bad debts, phantom income through unaccountable M&A earn-out liabilities, and aggressive amortization assumptions: all designed to portray glowing 'Non-GAAP' results." On this news, XPO's share price fell $15.77 per share or more than 26.1%, to close at $44.50 on December 13, 2018.
