SAN DIEGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Robbins Geller Rudman & Dowd LLP announces that a class action lawsuit has been filed in the Northern District of Illinois on behalf of purchasers of OneSpan Inc. (NASDAQ:OSPN) securities between May 9, 2018 and August 11, 2020, inclusive (the “Class Period”). The case is captioned Almendariz v. OneSpan Inc., No. 20-cv-04906, and is assigned to Judge Joan B. Gottschall. The OneSpan class action lawsuit charges OneSpan and certain of its officers with violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 permits any investor who purchased OneSpan securities during the Class Period to seek appointment as lead plaintiff in the OneSpan class action lawsuit. A lead plaintiff will act on behalf of all other class members in directing the OneSpan class action lawsuit. The lead plaintiff can select a law firm of its choice to litigate the OneSpan class action lawsuit. An investor’s ability to share in any potential future recovery of the OneSpan class action lawsuit is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff. If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff of theOneSpanclass action lawsuit or have questions concerning your rights regarding the OneSpanclass action lawsuit, please provide your information here or contact counsel, J.C. Sanchez of Robbins Geller, at 800/449-4900 or 619/231-1058 or via e-mail at jsanchez@rgrdlaw.com. Lead plaintiff motions for the OneSpanclass action lawsuit must be filed with the court no later than October 19, 2020.

OneSpan, together with its subsidiaries, designs, develops, and markets digital solutions for identity, security, and business productivity worldwide.

The OneSpan class action lawsuit alleges that during the Class Period, defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose, among other things, that OneSpan had inadequate disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting and that OneSpan had overstated its revenue relating to certain contracts with customers involving software licenses in its financial statements spread out over the quarters from the first quarter of 2018 to the first quarter of 2020.

On August 4, 2020, OneSpan postponed its second quarter 2020 earnings release and conference call by one week, attributing the delay to prior-period revenue-recognition problems relating to certain software license contracts spread out over the quarters from the first quarter of 2018 to the first quarter of 2020. OneSpan further stated that “[t]he net contract assets that originated from a portion of these contracts in prior periods were not properly accounted for in subsequent periods, which caused overstatements of revenue.”

Then, on August 11, 2020, OneSpan disclosed that it would not timely file its quarterly report for the quarter ended June 30, 2020, that same-quarter year-over-year revenues had declined, and that it was withdrawing its full year 2020 earnings guidance, which OneSpan had affirmed one quarter earlier. On this news, the price of OneSpan shares fell nearly 40%, damaging investors.
