The complaint alleges that the Company: (a) exaggerated its November 2012 sales figures for its fuel depot storage facilities in Taiyuan and Gujiao, Shanxi; (b) failed to disclose a $32 million investment in a tourism business made by Longwei's subsidiary, Shanxi Zhinghe Energy Conversion Co., Ltd.; and (c) that as a result of the foregoing, the Company's statements regarding its business, operations and financial performance were materially false and misleading, and resulted in the Company's stock trading at artificially inflated prices during the Class Period.

On January 3, 2013 a report published by GEOInvesting.com noted these and other allegations of public disclosure fraud. Upon release of these allegations, shares of Longwei stock fell more than 70 percent.
