Transocean Class Action Lawsuit Alert

Kahn Swick & Foti, LLC (KSF), led by former Louisiana Attorney General Charles C. Foti, Jr., has put out an important notice for investors who suffered financial losses exceeding $100,000 in Transocean Ltd. (NYSE: RIG). These investors are reminded that they have until February 24, 2025 to file applications to become lead plaintiffs in a securities class action lawsuit against the company.

Background on the Lawsuit

This lawsuit originates from accusations that Transocean and some of its executives failed to disclose significant information related to their financial status during the class period, which extends from October 31, 2023, to September 2, 2024. These alleged issues violate federal securities laws, which are in place to protect investors and ensure transparency in the financial dealings of publicly traded companies.

The claims point out several material misstatements and omissions made by the executives. Notably, they indicated that the Discovery Inspiration and the Development Driller III were non-strategic assets, and that the company's asset valuations were overstated. As a result, they implied that if these vessels were sold, the company would incur significant impairment losses despite previously reassuring investors that their financial health was stable.

On September 3, 2024, Transocean revealed that it finalized an agreement to sell both the Development Driller III and Discoverer Inspiration rigs for a total of $342 million. This announcement led to a notable drop in the company's stock value by nearly 8.86%, falling to $4.32 per share, due to increased trading activity from apprehensive investors reacting to the disclosure of these impairments.
