According to the filed complaint: defendants throughout the Class Period made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) the Company had hired its auditor, E&Y, pursuant to a conflicted and improper process and in order to help facilitate defendants’ efforts to engage in accounting fraud; (2) Sealed Air ’s deduction of $1.49 billion, in connection with a settlement resolving asbestos-related liabilities, was indefensible and done for the improper purpose of artificially inflating the Company’s financial results; (3) Sealed Air had artificially inflated its earnings, cash flows, and operating income; and (4) as a result, Sealed Air ’s public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times.
