NEW YORK, Nov. 18, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Stull, Stull & Brody (“SS&B”) reminds investors that a class action lawsuit was commenced in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California on behalf of purchasers of stock of LendingClub Corporation (“LendingClub” or the “Company”) during the period from December 11, 2014 through May 6, 2016 (the “Class Period”).  The complaint alleges, among other things, LendingClub misled investors with respect to its loan origination volume and that the Company had material weaknesses in its internal controls.

During the same period of time, LendingClub employees were purchasing stock in LendingClub’s 2014 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”).  SS&B is investigating whether the registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission that allowed the ESPP to purchase Company stock violated Section 11 of the Securities Act of 1933 by omitting material facts and otherwise containing inaccurate, misleading and untrue statements of fact.
