Law Offices of Howard G. Smith reminds investors of the upcoming December 5, 2016 deadline to file a lead plaintiff motion in the class action lawsuit filed on behalf of investors who purchased or otherwise acquired Ferrellgas Partners, L.P. (“Ferrellgas” or the “Company”) (NYSE: FGP) securities between June 1, 2015 and September 28, 2016, inclusive (the “Class Period”).

The complaint filed in this action alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and/or misleading statements, as well as failed to disclose material adverse facts about the Company’s business, operations, and prospects. Specifically, Defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose: (1) that the Company’s propane sales were declining; (2) that the Company’s midstream logistics business was being negatively impacted by low crude oil prices; (3) that, as such, the Company’s Adjusted EBITDA would fall below the Company’s projections; (4) that the Company was becoming more and more leveraged; (5) that, in response, the Company would need to obtain an amendment under the secured credit facility and accounts receivable securitization facility to increase the maximum leverage ratio to a range of 5.95x to 6.05x; (6) that, as a result of the foregoing, the Company would likely need to reduce its dividend; and (7) that, as a result of the foregoing, Defendants’ statements about Ferrellgas’ business, operations, and prospects, were false and misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis.

If you purchased Ferrellgas shares, you may move the Court no later than December 5, 2016 to request appointment as lead plaintiff. To be a member of the class you need not take any action at this time; you may retain counsel of your choice or take no action and remain an absent member of the Class.
