Hagens Berman Reminds Nissan Motor Co. (NSANY) Investors of February 8, 2019 Lead Plaintiff Deadline and Reported SEC Investigation

Then, on December 10, 2018, the Wall Street Journal reported Tokyo prosecutors formally charged Ghosn with conspiracy to underreport tens of millions of dollars of his compensation within Nissan's regulatory filings.

Reuters reported on December 31, 2018 that the Tokyo District Court said it extended Ghosn's detention until January 11, 2019 but, more recently, the Tokyo court reportedly rejected Ghosn's latest request for bail.

Bloomberg reported on January 28, 2019 that the SEC is investigating whether Nissan's executive-pay disclosures were accurate and whether it had adequate controls to prevent improper payments.

"Foreign companies issuing securities in the U.S. are not exempt from our securities laws," said Hagens Berman partner Reed Kathrein.  "We're focused on investors' losses and the extent to which Nissan's historical financial statements may have been misleading."

Whistleblowers:  Persons with non-public information regarding Nissan should consider their options to help in the investigation or take advantage of the SEC Whistleblower program.  Under the new program, whistleblowers who provide original information may receive rewards totaling up to 30 percent of any successful recovery made by the SEC.  For more information, call Reed Kathrein at 510-725-3000 or email NSANY@hbsslaw.com.
