Harwood Feffer LLP Announces Investigation of Roadrunner Transportation Systems, Inc.

NEW YORK, Jan. 31, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Harwood Feffer LLP (www.hfesq.com) is investigating potential claims against the board of directors of Roadrunner Transportation Systems, Inc. ("Roadrunner" or the "Company") (NYSE: RRTS) concerning whether the board has breached its fiduciary duties to shareholders.

On January 30, 2017, the Company announced that in November 2016, it "was made aware of various potential accounting discrepancies at its Morgan Southern and Bruenger operating subsidiaries."  As a result of an investigation, the Company "currently estimates it will require prior period adjustments to Roadrunner's results of operations of between $20 million and $25 million" in the Company's annual and quarterly financial reporting for the years 2014, 2015, and 2016.  According to the Company, the errors "principally relate to unrecorded expenses from unreconciled balance sheet accounts including cash, driver and other receivables, and linehaul and other driver payables," and that the Company is reassessing its internal controls over financial reporting and its compliance programs.

Our investigation concerns whether the Company board of directors has breached its fiduciary duties to shareholders, grossly mismanaged the Company, and/or committed abuses of control in connection with the foregoing.
