According to the complaint, Defendants misled investors by concealing the extent of- and cost to repair- the fire damage to one of Venator's most important plants for manufacturing titanium dioxide in Pori, Finland.

By mid-December 2018, after a series of partial disclosures during 2018 about the true extent of the Pori facility's problems, the price of Venator shares had eroded nearly 80% below the price just a year earlier.

"We're focused on investors' losses and the extent to which Defendants' statements about the facility may be misleading," said Hagens Berman partner Reed Kathrein.
