Analysis · LNKS · Manufacturing
Three putative securities class actions in New York Supreme Court name Linkers Industries as a defendant, alleging violations of Sections 11, 12(a)(2) and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933. The complaints claim the Company and its underwriters failed to disclose an alleged coordinated pattern of market manipulation involving numerous nano-cap and micro-cap issuers. While the Company has not been served in two of the three actions and intends to seek dismissal of the third, the litigation creates legal cost exposure and reputational risk. This comes as the stock trades near its 52-week low with a market cap of roughly $1.6 million, and the complaints contain no specific factual allegations of wrongdoing by Linkers.
