The law firm claims Canaan concealed that its fourth quarter of fiscal year 2020 sales had declined more than 93% year-over-year compared to its fourth quarter fiscal year 2019.

Another law firm, Johnson Fistel, LLP, has also filed a class action lawsuit against Canaan on the same grounds. The Portnoy Law Firm already notified Canaan's investors that the firm has "initiated an investigation" into possible securities fraud, and may file a class action on behalf of investors as well.
