The Gross Law Firm notifies investors that a class action has commenced in the United States District Court for the District of Kansas on behalf of shareholders of Compass Minerals International, Inc. who purchased common stock between October 31, 2017 and November 18, 2018.
The filed complaint alleges that defendants made materially false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: 1) costs at the Company's salt mine in Goderich, Ontario were increasing rather than decreasing; 2) defendants had misrepresented the amount of salt the Company was able to produce at Goderich using the new continuous mining and continuous haulage equipment; and 3) the known and ongoing production shortfalls the Company was experiencing were reasonably expected to reduce its future operating income.
