The Company stated that it focuses on helping employers control spending and save money, and that it discloses its fees clearly to customers. On December 19, 2016, FleetCor announced that Chevron (News - Alert) would terminate its long-term contract with the Company. On February 8, 2017, CEO Ronald F. Clarke touted the Company's performance and growth while mentioning that it would help Chevron transition to a new supplier. On March 1, 2017, Capitol Forum released a report claiming that FleetCor overcharges customers and obscures its fees in transaction reports and marketing materials. On April 4, 2017, Citron Research published a report accusing the Company of engaging in predatory business and sales practices, and citing this as the reason Chevron departed. On April 27, 2017, Citron Research published a follow-up report asserting that FleetCor developed an algorithm which ranks customers by how acquiescent they can be to extra fees without complaint. On May 3, 2017, Citron Research reported on a lawsuit Chevron filed against FleetCor on May 1, 2017, claiming that the Company obstructed its transition to a new supplier by denying access to its fuel card portfolio. Following this news, FleetCor's stock price dropped materially, which caused investors harm.
