The plaintiff claims that between October 23, 2015, and June 12, 2020, the Defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that Cabot had inadequate environmental controls and procedures and/or failed to properly mitigate known issues related to those controls and procedures, that as a result, Cabot, among other issues, failed to fix faulty gas wells, thereby polluting Pennsylvania's water supplies through stray gas migration, that the foregoing was foreseeably likely to subject Cabot to increased governmental scrutiny and enforcement, as well as increased reputational and financial harm, that Cabot continually downplayed its potential civil and/or criminal liabilities with respect to such environmental matters, and that as a result, the Company's public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times.
