The complaint alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants made false and misleading statements and failed to disclose that: (1) a major customer was reducing its purchases of Applied Optoelectronics’40G receivers; (2) the loss of this major customer’s business would have a severe negative impact on Applied Optoelectronics’ financial performance; and (3) as a consequence, Applied Optoelectronics’ public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times.

Additionally, if you have held Applied Optoelectronics shares continuously since at least July 13, 2017, you may have standing to hold the Company harmless from damage the officers or directors are alleged to have caused the Company.
