Often, firms issuing notices do not have comparable experience, resources, or any meaningful peer recognition. Be wise in selecting counsel. The Rosen Law Firm represents investors throughout the globe, concentrating its practice in securities class actions and shareholder derivative litigation. Rosen Law Firm has achieved the largest ever securities class action settlement against a Chinese Company. Rosen Law Firm was Ranked No. 1 by ISS Securities Class Action Services for number of securities class action settlements in 2017. The firm has been ranked in the top 4 each year since 2013 and has recovered billions of dollars for investors. In 2019 alone the firm secured over $438 million for investors. In 2020, founding partner Laurence Rosen was named by law360 as a Titan of Plaintiffs&#39; Bar. Many of the firm&#39;s attorneys have been recognized by Lawdragon and Super Lawyers.</p><p xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">Details of the case: According to the lawsuit, defendants throughout the Class Period made materially false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) the vast majority of the purported orders in Cogent&#39;s optical wavelength &#34;backlog&#34; were unlikely to ever result in a paid order; (2) large quantities of the customers in Cogent&#39;s purported optical wavelength &#34;backlog&#34; were unable or unwilling to accept delivery even if Cogent was in a position to provision the wavelength in a timely manner; (3) as a result of the foregoing, defendants had materially misrepresented customer demand for Cogent&#39;s optical wavelength services and the nature of Cogent&#39;s purported &#34;backlog&#34; of wavelength orders; (4) as a result of the foregoing, Cogent was not on track to achieve its revenue and margin targets and such targets lacked a reasonable basis in objective fact; (5) Cogent did not have the financial capacity or business fundamentals to maintain its long-standing dividend policy; and (6) there was a material, undisclosed risk that defendant David Schaeffer would be forced to sell vast quantities of Cogent stock as a result of his high-risk pledging activities, thereby further depressing the price of Cogent stock in the event the truth regarding Cogent&#39;s &#34;backlog,&#34; demand issues, and financial position were ever revealed. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages. </p><p xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">To join the Cogent Communication class action, go to <a xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" href="https://edge.prnewswire.com/c/link/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=4738882-1&amp;h=3630826300&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Frosenlegal.com%2Fcases%2Fcogent-communications-holdings-inc-2026%2Fjoin&amp;a=https%3A%2F%2Frosenlegal.com%2Fcases%2Fcogent-communications-holdings-inc-2026%2Fjoin" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://rosenlegal.com/cases/cogent-communications-holdings-inc-2026/join</a> or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email <a xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" href="mailto:case@rosenlegal.com" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">case@rosenlegal.com</a> for information on the class action.</p><p xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">No Class Has Been Certified.
