INVESTOR ALERT: Brower Piven Encourages Shareholders Who Have Losses In Excess Of $100,000 From Investment In Orbital ATK, Inc. To Contact Brower Piven Before The Lead Plaintiff Deadline In Class Action Lawsuit


The securities litigation law firm of Brower Piven, A Professional Corporation, announces that a class action lawsuit has been commenced in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia on behalf of purchasers of Orbital ATK (News - Alert), Inc. (NYSE: OA) ("Orbital" or the "Company") securities during the period between June 1, 2015 and August 9, 2016, inclusive (the "Class Period"). Investors who wish to become proactively involved in the litigation have until October 11, 2016 to seek appointment as lead plaintiff.

If you wish to choose counsel to represent you and the Class, you must apply to be appointed lead plaintiff and be selected by the Court. The lead plaintiff will direct the litigation and participate in important decisions including whether to accept a settlement for the Class in the action. The lead plaintiff will be selected from among applicants claiming the largest loss from investment in Orbital securities during the Class Period. Members of the Class will be represented by the lead plaintiff and counsel chosen by the lead plaintiff. No class has yet been certified in the above action.

The complaint accuses the defendants of violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 by virtue of the defendants' failure to disclose during the Class Period that the Company acked effective control over financial reporting and failed to record an anticipated loss on a $2.3 billion long-term contract with the U.S. Army after the loss became evident in 2015.



According to the complaint, following an August 10, 2016 pre-market announcement that the Company would miss its Form 10-Q filing deadline because it would need to restate its financials primarily due to its contract with the U.S. Army and that there are material weaknesses in the Company's internal control over financial reporting, the value of Orbital shares declined significantly.

If you have suffered a loss in excess of $100,000 from investment in Orbital securities purchased on or after June 1, 2015 and held through the revelation of negative information during and/or at the end of the Class Period and would like to learn more about this lawsuit and your ability to participate as a lead plaintiff, without cost or obligation to you, please visit our website at http://www.browerpiven.com/currentsecuritiescases.html.
