Eagle Bancorp Stock Plummets 20% on News of Government Investigations
On July 17th, Eagle Bancorp released its Q2 earnings report, missing revenue and earnings estimates. The company also disclosed that it has been the target of ongoing government investigations. According to the Washington Business Journal, these investigations have caused a dramatic increase in Eagle Bancorp’s legal fees.
Global Newswire states that these investigations involve potential wrongdoing surrounding Eagle Bancorp’s disclosure (or non-disclosure) of related party transactions, the “retirement” of certain of its officers and directors, and a potentially improper relationship with a local public official.
Eagle Bancorp has announced that it is unable to predict the outcome of these ongoing investigations. The company expects to continue to incur high legal fees for at least the rest of 2019.
On this news, shares dropped over 20% and significantly injured investors. Our firm will continue to investigate.
