1. Shareholders encouraged to register for class action regarding PPTA. 2. PPTA's capital expenditure for Stibnite Gold Project increased by over 75%. 3. Stock price plummeted 22.39% following disclosure of increased expenses. 4. Allegations cite misleading statements on inflation impacts from company executives. 5. Investors can register for updates on the recovery process.
The significant increase in capital expenditures severely damages investor trust and market perception. Historical examples include stocks plummeting after similar disclosures of misleading information, resulting in class actions.
The ongoing legal issues and significant cost overruns are likely to impact investor confidence, affecting stock performance. This relevance is underscored by the immediate drop in stock price post-announcement.
Immediate market reaction was negative; next earnings report may further reflect this impact. Short-term fluctuations are likely until more clarity on project costs is achieved.
NEW YORK, April 28, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- The Gross Law Firm issues the following notice to shareholders of Perpetua Resources Corp. (NASDAQ: PPTA).
Shareholders who purchased shares of PPTA during the class period listed are encouraged to contact the firm regarding possible lead plaintiff appointment. Appointment as lead plaintiff is not required to partake in any recovery.
April 17, 2024 to February 13, 2025
According to the complaint, defendants provided investors with material information concerning Perpetua's expected initial capital expenditure for the Stibnite Gold Project. Defendants' statements included, among other things, minimization of the impact of inflation and other potential sources for increased capital expenditure costs for the project. On February 13, 2025, Perpetua published an updated cash flow model for the Stibnite Gold Project, unveiling additional capital expenses of $952 million, a more than 75% increase from the original figures presented to investors and well beyond the suggested 10-20% increase contemplated by defendants. The Company attributed these increased costs on inflation, indirect costs, higher mining costs, and direct decisions defendants made with respect to the project, including the choice to change the design of the electrical poles from timber to steel and the decision to "buy-and-build instead of lease the oxygen plant." Following this news, the price of Perpetua's common stock declined dramatically. From a closing market price of $11.97 per share on February 13, 2025, Perpetua's stock price fell to $9.29 per share on February 14, 2025, a decline of about 22.39% in the span of just a single day.
