Just Energy purports to be a consumer company focused on essential needs, including electricity and natural gas commodities; on health and well-being, through products such as water quality and filtration devices; and on utility conservation, including renewable energy options.

The complaint alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and/or misleading statements, as well as failed to disclose material adverse facts about the Company's business, operations, and prospects.  Specifically, Defendants failed to disclose to investors that: (i) the Company experienced customer enrollment and nonpayment issues; (ii) as a result, the Company was reasonably likely to incur an impairment charge to its accounts receivable; (iii) as a result, the Company lacked adequate internal control over its financial reporting; and (iv) as a result of the foregoing, Defendants' positive statements about the Company's business, operations, and prospects were materially misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis.

On July 23, 2019, the Company disclosed that it had "identified customer enrolment [sic] and non-payment issues, primarily in Texas, over the past 12 months" and that, as a result, it expected an impairment charge of CAD $45 to $50 million to its Texas residential accounts receivable.

On this news, the Company's share price fell $0.66 per share, or more than 15%, to close at $3.72 per share on July 23, 2019, on unusually heavy trading volume.

Tackling Carbon Emissions to Reduce the Game's Environmental Impact

PHOENIX, Jan. 11, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Top-ranked Clemson and No.2 Alabama will be facing off amidst more than orange and crimson at the College Football Playoff National Championship.  TerraPass, a member of the Just Energy Group of companies will be greening up the game with carbon offsets and renewable energy credits (RECs); mitigating the game's environmental impact.

The College Football Playoff, in partnership with TerraPass, will offset enough carbon to fly the length of 130,000 football fields and light up 30,000 propane tanks for tailgating.

"Sustainability is one of the core principles of operations at the College Football Playoff National Championship," says Jack Groh, who leads sustainability efforts for the event.
