The complaint filed by Schall, Brown & Schwartz LLP alleges that Peabody Energy violated the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 by issuing false and misleading statements to the market. According to the filing, the company claimed it could reliably forecast production at its Centurion site while masking significant delays and operational failures. When these issues surfaced, shareholders sustained financial losses.
