The lawsuit has been filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York on behalf of all those who purchased Gol Linhas securities between March 14, 2019 and July 22, 2020 (the "Class Period"). The case, Hornea v. GOL Linhas Areas Inteligentes S.A., et al, No. 20-cv-04243 was filed on September 11, 2020.

As detailed below, the lawsuit focuses on whether the Company and its executives violated federal securities laws by making false and/or misleading statements and/or failing to disclose that: (1) Gol Linhas had material weaknesses in its internal controls; (2) there was substantial doubt as to the Company's ability to continue to exist as a going concern because of negative net working capital and net capital deficiency; and (3) as a result, Defendants' statements about its business, operations, and prospects, were materially false and misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis at all relevant times.

Then, on June 29, 2020, after the market closed, Gol Linhas filed its annual report for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2019 on Form 20-F with the SEC (the "2019 20-F"). There, the Company disclosed several material weaknesses in its internal controls.

On this news, Gol Linhas's stock fell from a closing price of $6.92 per share on June 29, 2020 to $6.78 per share on June 30, 2020-a $0.14 or 2.02% drop.

Finally, on July 23, 2020, Gol Linhas announced that it had dismissed KPMG Auditores Independentes as the Company's registered auditing firm.

On this news, Gol Linhas's stock fell from a closing price of $7.80 per share on July 22, 2020 to $7.25 per share on July 23, 2020-a $0.55 or 7.05% drop.

Any member of the putative class may move the Court to serve as lead plaintiff through counsel of their choice, or may choose to do nothing and remain an absent class member.
