Spirit purports to design, manufacture, and supply commercial aero structures in the United States and internationally.

The Complaint alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and misleading statements regarding the Company's business, operational and compliance policies.  Specifically, Defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that:  (1) the Company lacked effective internal controls over financial reporting; (2) the Company did not comply with its established accounting principles related to potential contingent liabilities; and (3) as a result, Defendants' statements about Spirit's business, operations and prospects were materially false and misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis at all relevant times.

On January 30, 2020, before the market opened, the Company issued a press release announcing that Spirit had determined that it did not comply with its accounting procedures and that its Chief Financial Officer Jose Garcia and Chief Accounting Officer John Gilson had resigned.

On this news, the Company's shares fell $2.56 per share or approximately 4% on unusually high volume to close at $65.08 per share on January 30, 2020, damaging investors.
