According to the Complaint, the Company made false and misleading statements to the market. FirstEnergy and associated organizations and individuals were the architects of a $60 million scheme involving bribery and the corruption of the political process with the goal of securing legislation favorable to the Company. The Company secretly bribed Ohio politicians with tens of millions of dollars to secure votes for Ohio House Bill 6 (“HB 6”), a $1.3 billion ratepayer bailout of the Company’s unprofitable nuclear generation plants. The Company funneled millions of dollars through “dark money” organizations to conduct a misleading advertising campaign in favor of the bill while concealing its involvement. The Company hired 15 signature-gathering firms and bribed others involved in a ballot initiative to repeal HB6 in order to thwart the effort, among other unscrupulous tactics. Based on these facts, the Company’s public statements were false and materially misleading throughout the class period. When the market learned the truth about FirstEnergy, investors suffered damages.
