EQUITY ALERT UPDATE: Rosen Law Firm Announces Filing of Securities Class Action Lawsuit Against Signet Jewelers Limited - SIG

NEW YORK, June 19, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Rosen Law Firm, a global investor rights law firm, announces the filing of a class action lawsuit on behalf of purchasers of Signet Jewelers Limited securities (NYSE: SIG) from August 29, 2013 through February 27, 2017, inclusive (the "Class Period"). The lawsuit seeks to recover damages for Signet investors under the federal securities laws.

To join the Signet class action, go to http://rosenlegal.com/cases-1064.htmlor call Phillip Kim, Esq. or Kevin Chan, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email pkim@rosenlegal.com or kchan@rosenlegal.com for information on the class action.

NO CLASS HAS YET BEEN CERTIFIED IN THE ABOVE ACTION. UNTIL A CLASS IS CERTIFIED, YOU ARE NOT REPRESENTED BY COUNSEL UNLESS YOU RETAIN ONE. YOU MAY ALSO REMAIN AN ABSENT CLASS MEMBER AND DO NOTHING AT THIS POINT. YOU MAY RETAIN COUNSEL OF YOUR CHOICE.

The complaint alleges that defendants during the Class Period issued false and misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that alleged sexual harassment by employees of Signet's Sterling Family of Jewelers division ("Sterling"), including numerous incidents of sexual assault and rape, which were detailed in approximately 249 declarations signed under penalty of perjury by current and former Sterling employees, made it unlikely that Signet would be able to avoid paying a sizable amount of damages in connection with a class action lawsuit filed by Sterling employees. As a result of this information being withheld from the market, Signet's stock traded at artificially inflated prices during the Class Period, reaching a high of $150.94 per share. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.

A class action lawsuit has already been filed. If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than July 5, 2017. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation.
