Glancy Prongay & Murray Announces the Filing of a Securities Class Action on Behalf of Booz Allen Hamilton Holding Corporation Investors and Encourages Investors to Contact the Firm


Glancy Prongay & Murray LLP ("GPM") announces that a class action lawsuit has been filed on behalf of investors who purchased Booz Allen Hamilton Holding Corporation ("Booz Allen" or the "Company") (NYSE: BAH) securities between May 19, 2016 and June 15, 2017, inclusive (the "Class Period"). Booz Allen investors have until August 18, 2017 to file a lead plaintiff motion. To obtain information or participate in the class action, please visit the Booz Allen page on our website at www.glancylaw.com.

On June 15, 2017, ost-market, Booz Allen revealed that on June 7, 2017, the Company's subsidiary Booz Allen Hamilton (News - Alert) Inc. "was informed that the U.S. Department of Justice is conducting a civil and criminal investigation relating to certain elements of [its] cost accounting and indirect cost charging practices with the U.S. government."



In response to this, Booz Allen's share price fell $7.43, or 18.89%, to close at $31.90 on June 16, 2017.

The complaint filed in this lawsuit alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that:(1) Booz Allen engaged in improper accounting practices in its contracts with the U.S. government; (2) consequently, the Company's revenues derived from services provided to the U.S. government were inflated and unsustainable; (3) discovery of the foregoing conduct would subject the Company to heightened regulatory scrutiny, potential criminal sanctions, and jeopardize its business relationship with the U.S. government; and (4) as a result of the foregoing, Booz Allen's public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times.
