GrafTech International Ltd. (NYSE:EAF) Investigation:

GrafTech is one of the world's largest suppliers of graphite electrodes used in electric-arc steelmaking, a fast-growing part of the steel industry because of its relatively low costs and more environmentally friendly setup.

The investigation focuses on GrafTech's past assurances that its graphite electrode facilities (including GrafTech, Mexico's Monterrey, Mexico facility which is reportedly responsible for about 25% of GrafTech's total production) provide unique competitive advantages and that it can continue to open up incremental capacity in Monterrey. The company has also assured investors that it minimizes its environmental footprint and that it focuses on Environmental, Social, and Governance ('ESG') initiatives.

GrafTech's assurances may have come under question on Sept. 16, 2022, when it disclosed that on Sept. 15, 2022 Mexican regulators visited the Monterrey facility to review the facility's environmental and operating permits, instructed the facility to wind down operations within 7 days, and determined that GrafTech Mexico's operating license was no longer in effect.

This news sent the price of GrafTech shares down more than 8% lower on Sept. 19, 2022, wiping out over $100 million of shareholder value.

'We're focused on investors' losses and whether GrafTech misrepresented its ability to produce more product in Monterrey and its ESG policies and procedures,' said Reed Kathrein, the Hagens Berman partner leading the investigation.
