Kirby McInerney LLP Announces an Investigation of Shareholder Claims Against Schmitt Industries, Inc. (SMIT)

The law firm of Kirby McInerney LLP is investigating potential claims against Schmitt Industries, Inc. (“Schmitt” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: SMIT). The investigation concerns whether Schmitt and/or certain of its officers have violated the federal securities laws and/or engaged in other unlawful business practices.

Schmitt designs, assembles, and markets computer-controlled balancing equipment and precision laser measurement systems for use primarily by the machine tool industry.

On September 20, 2022, Schmitt announced that its previous financial statements “should no longer be relied upon” and would require restatement, estimating that “the errors were material on a cumulative basis resulting in a net $330,203 under-recognition of expenses over the first three quarters of the fiscal year.” On this news, the price of Schmitt shares declined by $0.68 per share, or approximately 17.9%, from $3.80 per share to close at $3.12 on September 21, 2022, and the shares declined an additional $0.84 per share to close at $2.28 the following day.
