On August 7, 2018, Spruce Point Capital Management (“Spruce Point”) published a research report on Maxar.  The Spruce Point report alleged, in part, that Maxar “has pulled one of the most aggressive accounting schemes Spruce Point has ever seen to inflate Non-IFRS earnings by 79%”.  Specifically, the report asserted that Maxar had used its acquisition of DigitalGlobe “to inflate [its] intangible assets” and had “amended its post-retirement benefit plan to book one-time gains” in a manner that “was not fully disclosed across its investor communications”.  Following publication of the Spruce Point report, Maxar’s stock price fell sharply during intraday trading on August 7, 2018.
